Make computation of directionality account for shadow trees
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This specifies (with some additional detail) the proposal in whatwg#3699 (comment). This changes three things:

* the inheritance of directionality,
* the inheritance of language, and
* the computation of dir=auto to account for shadow trees.

This builds on the work in whatwg#9452 and whatwg#9554 to refactor this section, and builds on work by Brian Kardell, Eric Meyer, and others in whatwg#7424 and in whatwg#9166 and work by fantasai, rniwa, smaug, MyIdShin, Brian Kardell, and others in whatwg#3699.

Fixes whatwg#3699.

<hr>

<p>To determine the <dfn export for="Node">language</dfn> of a node, user agents must look at the
nearest ancestor element (including the element itself if the node is an element) that has a <span
data-x="attr-xml-lang"><code data-x="">lang</code> attribute in the <span>XML
namespace</span></span> set or is an <span data-x="HTML elements">HTML element</span> and has a
<code data-x="attr-lang">lang</code> in no namespace attribute set. That attribute specifies the
language of the node (regardless of its value).</p>

<p>If both the <code data-x="attr-lang">lang</code> attribute in no namespace and the <span
data-x="attr-xml-lang"><code data-x="">lang</code> attribute in the <span>XML
namespace</span></span> are set on an element, user agents must use the <span
data-x="attr-xml-lang"><code data-x="">lang</code> attribute in the <span>XML
namespace</span></span>, and the <code data-x="attr-lang">lang</code> attribute in no namespace
must be <span data-x="ignore">ignored</span> for the purposes of determining the element's
language.</p>
<p>To determine the <dfn export for="Node">language</dfn> of a node, user agents must use the
first appropriate step in the following list:</p>

<dl class="switch">
<dt>If the node is an element that has a <span data-x="attr-xml-lang"><code data-x="">lang</code>
attribute in the <span>XML namespace</span></span> set</dt>
<dd><p>Use the value of that attribute.</p></dd>

<dt>If the node is an <span data-x="HTML elements">HTML element</span> and has a <code
data-x="attr-lang">lang</code> in no namespace attribute set.</dt>
<dd><p>Use the value of that attribute.</p></dd>

<p>If node's <span data-x="inclusive ancestor">inclusive ancestors</span> do not have either
attribute set, but there is a <span>pragma-set default language</span> set, then that is the
language of the node. If there is no <span>pragma-set default language</span> set, then language
information from a higher-level protocol (such as HTTP), if any, must be used as the final
fallback language instead. In the absence of any such language information, and in cases where the
higher-level protocol reports multiple languages, the language of the node is unknown, and the
corresponding language tag is the empty string.</p>
<dt>If the node's parent is a <span>shadow root</span></dt>
<dt>If the node is a <code>slot</code> element whose <span>root</span> is a <span>shadow
root</span></dt>
<dd><p>Use the <span>language</span> of that <span>shadow root</span>'s <span
data-x="concept-DocumentFragment-host">host</span>.</p></dd>

<!-- this assumes that if there's an ancestor element, the parent must be an element -->
<dt>If the node's <span>parent element</span> is not null</dt>
<dd><p>Use the <span>language</span> of that <span>parent element</span>.</p></dd>

<dt>Otherwise</dt>
<dd><p>If there is a <span>pragma-set default language</span> set, then that is the language of
