I'm considering rewriting this from scratch, with the following changes which would result in nicer code and better output:
1. Instead of subclassing the HTML converter, I will modify the document upon its creation. This would mean no longer touching the Kramdown namespace.
2. As I explain [here](https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/10097#issuecomment-2746324449), `dir="auto"` is just not powerful enough to produce optimal results. I would like to implement server-side the algorithm I consider optimal, and set explicit `dir="ltr"` or `dir="rtl"` on each element for which it is relevant.
This would undoubtedly create the best bidi markdown implementation the world has ever seen!
