Currently, the sentence says that the mark-up is just a convenience that translates to formatting characters, which is not really true for dir= and <bdo>, and completely untrue for <bdi>. If the sentence is changed to encourage people to use dir=, <bdo>, and <bdi> instead of formatting characters, then I fully agree with fantasai. -- 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.
