In many cases, CSS2 specifies that left and right are to be interpreted with
respect to the "direction" property, with left mapping to right and vice-versa
for right-to-left directionality. Does this interpretation also apply for those
CSS2 properties permitted in XSL? Furthermore, does this extend to variable
interpretations of top/bottom w.r.t. block-progression-direction? Finally, does
this intepretation also apply to absolute position properties left, right, top,
bottom?

Glenn
