As currently proposed, the direction of the textarea of the whole would be set,
and thus that of all its paragraphs, not an individual paragraph. Thus, we
would not treat a textarea any differently from (a single-line) input.

It is not perfect, but I do not like adding control characters to the current
paragraph, and there is nothing else.
