[svgwg] The 'direction' property

lkemmel has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg:

== The 'direction' property ==
https://svgwg.org/svg2-draft/text.html#DirectionProperty

> It also may affect the direction in which characters are positioned 
if the unicode-bidi property's value is either embed or bidi-override.
 
==>
"It also affects the inline base direction if the unicode-bidi 
property's value is either embed, bidi-override, isolate, or 
isolate-override. "

(1. In CSS3 Writing Modes, besides 'embed' and 'bidi-override', it can
 also have effect on bidi reordering in conjunction with 'isolate' and
 'isolate-override' - 
https://www.w3.org/TR/css-writing-modes-3/#unicode-bidi.
2. "direction in which characters are positioned" in technically 
correct, but can be confused with "complete string reverse vs. the 
original order". I suggest using the term "inline base direction" 
instead.)
