I have re-read the spec again and checked a bunch of 'direction' and 
'unicode-bidi' tests we did in CSS2.1 test suite

http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/nightly-unstable/html4/chapter-9.htm#s9.10

and clearly this is the case.

1-
Only writing-mode has a rendering effect on row progression (or, if you 
prefer, row right-to-left order for 'writing-mode: vertical-rl' tables 
or row left-to-right order for 'writing-mode: vertical-lr').

2- Setting 'direction' on a table element only has a rendering effect on 
columns order (or, if you prefer, column top-to-bottom order or column 
bottom-top order)

3- setting direction on a block container sets the text direction but 
bytes and characters are not reordered (or bidi-reordered); you need 
'unicode-bidi: bidi-override' to do that.

Hajime, here's the example I had in mind. I took your

http://test.csswg.org/source/css-writing-modes-3/row-progression-011.xht

and then created 2 distinct, modified variants of it:

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/CSS3WritingModes/s21direction-table-column-order-011-Hajime.xht

and

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/CSS3WritingModes/s21-block-override-table-cells-011-Hajime.xht

Chrome 39 must have a bug with the rendering of "H&nbsp;" and "V&nbsp;" 
in s21direction-table-column-order-011-Hajime.xht test because it fails, 
if I'm correct, to start the 4th line box with the H (or V) instead of 
the non-breaking-space.

IE11 fails completely s21direction-table-column-order-011-Hajime.xht

IE11 does not, it seems, support 'unicode-bidi: bidi-override' for 
vertical-rl tables.
