From the example, I am not sure what the feed author wants. So far there
are only two directionalities allowed, left-to-right and right-to-left.
In the example, the directionality of atom:entry is "rtl", there is no
reason for the author to reset the directionality with an empty string.
He should either change the directionality to "ltr" in atom:content or
keep "rtl" by not using any "dir" attribute in atom:content.
Fair enough. Removing dir="" requires that the feed publisher always
explicitly set the direction. It simplifies processing and helps to
eliminate guessing. Those are compelling enough reasons. In the next
iteration I'll remove the blank value.
