I think what fantasai meant was "[ over | under | inter-character ] || [
right | left ]", and what I meant was "start | end | inter-character". I
guess you probably meant "over | under | inter-character"? I'm not sure.
I'm fine with either your option (if I understand correctly here) or mine.
But I'm not fine with what I think fantasai meant.

I guess "start" and "end" should be probably better, because "over" and
"under" look like physical values, however we want them to be meaningful in
logical context, so that they work fine with vertical text.
