There's a note saying this isn't possible in JSON-LD, which makes me wonder whether the LocalizableString defined in this specification should really be a reference to something defined elsewhere.)

That was a subject of several long discussions both in this Working group (https://github.com/w3c/wpub/issues/354) as well in the aforementioned document's issue list (e.g., https://github.com/w3c/string-meta/issues/12) and the final comment (https://github.com/w3c/wpub/issues/354#issuecomment-484055862) put the issue at rest: it is not possible to express the base direction of a textual items in JSON-LD. I am not sure what other reference you refer to: referring to a data structure that _cannot_ be expressed in the manifest itself is not a solution.
