 The [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/bdo bdo]
 tag provides a semantic-free method for switching text-direction within a
 single page. e.g.,

 {{{
 <p>This text will go left to right.</p>
 <p><bdo dir="rtl">This text will go right to left.</bdo></p>
 }}}

 Support for it was silently added in r2896, and then removed without much
 justification in r2924.

 I think there are valid use cases for the tag, and don't see any reason to
 prevent people from using it.
