(This PR assumes that bidi ellipses inherit the directionality from their block container, not from the bidi paragraph. See #12617 (comment))
Under that assumption, this PR does look good. But you're right, it is an assumption that we need to confirm.
In any case, even if that assumption is invalidated, and we do go by the bidi paragraph after all, the text of this PR will still be closer to that goal than the pre-existing spec, so it's still worth merging. We can always refine further later if needed.
