[Bug 10821] i18n comment 17 : setting input and textarea element direction through browser UI should set the dir attribute and trigger oninput event

As mentioned in comment 12, WebKit implements the proposed behavior, and it
seems reasonable to me. A script can detect direction for <div contenteditable>
via DOM attributes (although not uniformly across browsers), so having such a
way for input and contenteditable only makes sense.

Firing oninput would seem strange though (I don't see any difference with e.g.
changing style to bold in contenteditable).
