The UTR50 defined orientation is a character property. It only affects the intrinsic orientation of a character. At least as I've understood the WG discussions in the past, it will only affect the behavior of the 'upright-right'. When 'upright', or 'sideways-xxx' is specified those represent explicit overrides on the underlying default orientation. In vertical text, the element below appears rotated: <span>Hotel Wonderland</span> In vertical text, the element below appears upright: <span style="text-orientation: upright">Hotel Wonderland</span> But I can definitely see how reading the current CSS3 Writing Modes spec could lead you to see things as you do, I definitely think the explanation could be clearer.
