Proposed changes to inline bidi article

I've been worrying about the length of the article "What you need to 
know about the bidi algorithm and inline markup" 
(http://www.w3.org/International/articles/inline-bidi-markup/), and in 
particular the amount of text before the meat of the article starts.

I came up with a proposal to improve matters. See 
http://www.w3.org/International/articles/inline-bidi-markup/Overview-new.en.php

This hides the content of the section "How the bidi algorithm works" 
unless you want to read it.  That brings the meat of the article up to 
the top.

Not only that, but I also include the text of the bidi basics stuff via 
PHP from a separate file.  This means that I can re-use the same text 
for other articles, eg. one about SVG.

It also means I can create a small standalone intro to the bidi 
algorithm, which I did at 
http://www.w3.org/International/articles/inline-bidi-markup/uba-basics

Any objections to me replacing the current version with this and 
publishing the standalone primer?
