Issue R103-30 Proposed Classification: Feature Request Resolution: Reject The <example> element has XML Schema type 'string' [1] which allows embedding of directionality marks and overrides (e.g. 0x200E, 0x200F, 0x202D, 0x202E, 0x202C). We've reviewed the I18N FAQ [2] and Unicode Technical Report #20 [3] and believe that embedded character codes are appropriate for the <example> element. PLS documents cover a single language. We've assumed that the examples would be in the same language as the lexicon and that adding xml:lang to <example> was therefore unnecessary. In the case of 'borrowed' words such as 'hors d'oeuvres', the example would be written in the borrowing language as in "<example>As an appetizer, he prepared a wide selection of hors d'oeuvres such as cucumber sandwiches and garlic hummus with baked pita.</example>".

Since this text can be harvested for reading elsewhere, we propose that you allow, as a minimum a span-like element within the example element that can support a dir=ltr|rtl|lro|rlo attribute to handle bidirectional text. You could also allow xml:lang on the span-like element for language markup.
