Yes, we would definitely refer to 1.1. The only thing I think should be done is to add a note in the document warning that @direction is a genuinly 1.1 feature.

That being said… on your advise the publication manifest's context does contain a bunch of @language:null statements (e.g., when the expected string value is a URL). I wonder whether it would be necessary to add a @direction:null to those, in case the author adds a global @direction. Probably yes, but that would create problems with 1.0 processors, too

IIRC, the feeling was that if schema.org <http://schema.org/> decide to use this, the impact would be limited, but would require the use of a 1.1 processor. And, not properly ignoring non-keywords that look like keywords could be considered a 1.0 bug, as the syntax spec says they should be ignored.
