Yes. And currently 34 additional properties are listed including these.

I agree that this is a tough one. We still have a few options to make this, and hope to show one or two within a week. As I said before, vertical flow isn't an easy feature; it doesn't make just like drawing emphasis marks over characters. It's a big feature, or I could say it must consist of a set of several features to make documents in vertical.

I'm not sure if I understand what you intended to ask here correctly. From the definition, "after" in horizontal + rtl is "bottom", so it means "padding-bottom". "padding-after" is mapped to "padding-left" if vertical-rl, and "padding-right" if vertical-rl.
