http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10818 --- Comment #11 from Aryeh Gregor <Simetrical+w3cbug@gmail.com> 2010-10-19 16:23:37 UTC --- I don't think using invisible characters should be mandated in cases where we can reasonably avoid it. They're extremely confusing and hard to work with -- you can argue this is just a tooling issue, but it's a ubiquitous one and I don't think it's likely to change anytime soon (since most software isn't used for dealing with mixed directionality much). In some cases we need them, like for <title> and attribute values and other things that have to be plaintext, but we shouldn't require them in other cases if possible. In this case, though, you can already solve the problem without the proposed attributes and without invisible characters, albeit a bit clumsily. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
