Status: Accepted

Change Description: Folded in Ian's more comprehensive change from the WHATWG
spec that updates some descriptions I missed and that additionally changes <bdo
dir="ltr|rtl"> to be directionally isolated (to be unicode-bidi:
isolate-override instead of unicode-bidi: bidi-override), as further requested.
This keeps the behavior of dir consistent across different elements and
enhances the usability of bdo under common usage. 

Rationale: See

summary.
