WP infoset and Web App Manifest and HTML all use `dir` to talk about the text direction.
RWPM is using the term differently to mean page/resource progression.
It also seems that text direction is missing from RWPM (now that I know `direction` isn't that).
Regardless, I fear we're into the weeds of RWPM development, and way off topic from the original subject line. :)
Lots to explore still...apparently.
Cheers,
Benjamin

Subject: Re: A question on RWPM: why the 'metadata' tag?
We're not conflating them, in Readium the property is dedicated to progress direction, not language direction like in the Web App Manifest.
