<p><font face="Candara">The document makes a number of very cogent
arguments that together imply that adding a layout language
subset for arbitrary rotations into plain text is misguided
based on the writing system, without even getting into the plain

<p><font face="Candara">There are some rich text environments where
it is possible to achieve a control over the placement and
orientation of glyphs that is rather unrestricted. Those are the
correct choice when it comes to faithfully representing
individual examples of actual pale0graphic texts in all their
details, accidental or intentional, regular or irregular.</font></p>

capabilities in plain text isn't desirable.<br>
