Re: [web-annotation] The textDirection and processingLanguage properties are not needed

@halindrome 

> @tantek you are not wrong. But let's not put too much importance on 
this "feature". It isn't a "feature" in the classic sense of the word.
 These are optional properties in a data model that might be present 
in content. There are no requirements that they be present, nor that 
they be interpreted if they are present. It's just advice. There are 
LOTS of such properties in this data model. The presence of absence of
 them in annotations generated by clients is something we will 
evaluate in the test cases. If they are present, we will test the 
values to ensure they conform to the requirements of the spec. But 
that doesn't really mean anything. At least, that's my interpretation.


Thank you for the good hint ... We have a feature that is not a 
feature according to the text above.
And you are write. ... we have a feature that is not documented trough
 a usecase, if you don't have a usecase defined, you cannot have a 
test case! No Usecase, No Testcase -> implies no feature!!!

What speaks about movind these two "non-features" to the anex with the
 extensions, which is not normative? 

I do support @tantek 's point of view:

> If untested or unimplemented or uninteroperable features (these 
properties) were explicitly at-risk, the group may drop them to help 
transition to PR. Otherwise untested/unimplemented/uninteroperable 
features (especially a novel approach as documented) must block a CR 
from transitioning to PR.
