The current spec says: This value forces the computed value of writing-mode of the ruby annotation container to be vertical-rl. And according to the discussions in CSSWG F2F meeting in Sydney, because of the cyclic dependency between writing-mode and display, the spec should be changed to something like The writing-mode of a ruby annotation is computed to vertical-rl if the ruby-position of its container is inter-character. But both forms have a problem encountered from the inheriting rule of anonymous boxes. Since either ruby annotation or its container could be an anonymous box (but never both), in which case, its computed writing-mode value cannot be inherited by its descendants. I have no idea how to solve this. If the cyclic dependency above is allowed, though, probably we can say the writing-mode is computed to vertical-rl for both ruby annotation and ruby annotation container. - Xidorn
