I wonder why text-orientation:upright depends on SVO of UTR#50. Was text-orientation:upright considered the property for English? But if not, I can not understand the reason why the cut of SVO feature in UTR#50 affects CSS text-orientation:upright. Based on JIS X4051 and JLReq, SVO/MVO should be considered one of layout styles of vertical writing[2]. CSS should be designed as flex as possible to make it easy to specify any style. Isolation of style from content is considered to be the basic concept of CSS. But current UTR#50 asignes a specific orientation and glyph to every character points and it makes it difficult to change style by CSS. You took the wrong way at frist, and you had better go back to the start point.
