We have the issue of mixed writing-modes (with different page-progression-direction), which we solve pretty crudely at the moment i.e. the primary writing-mode is applied to every HTML document.

Considering CJK can also be written horizontal-tb, maybe we can add in docs that if the publication contains a significant portion of Latin-only documents, authors should consider using this writing mode as the primary one.

Mixed direction is quite another issue though, as we would have to say, do the following for LTR docs in RTL publications:

<html dir="rtl">
  <body>
    <div dir="ltr">
      <!-- Your Latin Contents -->
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

People may well crucify us if we provide this as a guideline…
