In an offline note, Franklin Tse asked about the empty string value for
the bidi attribute. He had raised an issue before about whether that
could be dropped, which I had originally decided to go ahead and do.
However, after going through a number of aggregated feed scenarios,
having the ability to explicitly state that no default direction had
been specified seemed to be more important than relying on a default
direction of LTR. I can definitely be convinced otherwise, of course.
