RE: New specdev material about bidi

Hello Mati and Richard,

> > 1) In section 5.2.4, we find: "They are invisible in most editors and
are therefore difficult to work with, and can easily lead to orphans and
overlapping ranges."

This is correct with respect to the text *buffer*, even though a 
conformant
UBA implementation would "only" keep orphans.
Anyway, the bottom line is that the result will likely not be what the
author intended.

That said, in some elements that do not allow inline markup (such as an
input control), at present there are often no means - other than CCs - to
customize the text appearance.
But this issue deserves a separate discussion..

Regards,
Lina Kemmel
