I'll make sure we sync 'writing-mode' with SVG before we issue a FPWD. But I won't get around to dealing with that until September. That said, I'd like to point out that I Consider Harmful the current definition of 'writing-mode', as it encourages authors to unintentionally screw around with the 'direction' property and override the [dir] attribute. I don't know that SVG has this problem, actually, so I'd need to investigate what SVG in fact does here. But the CSS spec for sure has this problem due to Michel's edits in 2003. ~fantasai
