How about this: define <br> to be a bidi paragraph separator, but define <br
ubi> to be a "soft" line separator. This would seem to follow from a part of
ubi's definition, which is to make the element act on its surroundings as a
bidi-neutral character. That way, you don't have to add bidibreak, but we still
get a soft <br> when we want one.
