--- Comment #16 from Erika Doyle Navara <erika.doyle@microsoft.com> ---
FWIW, Travis and I mined the IE archives for more background on the bidi
changes we made in IE8 and their impact.
The change in behavior was a byproduct of our rewrite of the bidi algorithm to
comply with Unicode, but not intentionally speced out behavior. Nevertheless,
the compat servicing fallout seems to have been minimal: I couldn't find any
bugs directly related to this issue since then that we didn't already fix
during the course of IE8 development (2 public betas + 1 release candidate
build), and our developers from the time don't recall any major issues.
With IE11, we actually changed our behavior to match browser interop, but even
so, IE is on board with this change.
I went ahead and posted the change for public review:

How does this look:
