Comment:This is a part of the proposals made by the "Additional Requirements
for Bidi in HTML" W3C First Public Working Draft. For a full description of the
use cases, please see 
http://www.w3.org/International/docs/html-bidi-requirements/#option
[http://www.w3.org/International/docs/html-bidi-requirements/#option]
. Here is the proposal made there:

The HTML specification should explicitly state that the <option> element's
computed direction will take its dir attribute (explicit or inherited) into
account, and will be used to display the option's text in both the dropdown and
after being chosen.
