In the formatting process, you need to remember ~35 new properties for
every element, right? You can only let go of these when you know the
computed value of 'writing-mode' for that element. And what about the
DOM, are you saying that the DOM will not offer any information about
logical properties after formatting has been done? So, if
'writing-mode' changes through the DOM, logical properties don't
apply?
