'For the purposes of applying the bidirectional algorithm to the paragraph-level↩
container that a bdi element finds itself within, the bdi element must be treated↩
like a U+FFFC OBJECT REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.'↩
↩
Obviously, this should hold even if the BDI's content is wrapped over more than one line.↩
A single character (U+FFFC or otherwise) obviously never gets wrapped over more than one↩
line, but we still expect the part of the content preceding the BDI, if any, that is↩
displayed on the same line as some part of the BDI to be ordered the same as it would be↩
if that part of the BDI were replaced with U+FFFC. Similarly, we expect the part of the↩
content following the BDI, if any, that is displayed on the same line as some part of the↩
BDI to be ordered the same as it would be if that part of the BDI were replaced with U+FFFC.↩
↩
In the test below, the content surrounding the BDI forms a single directional run (despite↩
the containing element and the BDI both having the opposite direction, because the BDI is↩
treated as a neutral). Thus, on the line containing the first part of the BDI, the BDI's↩
content appears after the content preceding it, and on the line containing the last part of↩
the BDI, the BDI content appears before the content following it, where both 'before' and↩
'after' are defined relative to the surrounding content's direction. And, of course, the line↩
containing just BDI content should be ordered in the BDI's direction.">↩
