dfdl:textBidi has to be "no", but I think the fact that we don't tolerate it is 
a bug. There are a few other cases like this.

I am quite sure we do already have a JIRA ticket about not properly issuing 
diagnostics for properties that we don't support at all.

Note that textBidi feature has been withdrawn from DFDL v1.0 - there are no 
implementations so we don't feel it is sensible to standardize that at this 
time.

Subject: Bug in Daffodil? "textBidi not allowed to appear on xs:element"

Hi Folks,

I placed dfdl:textBidi="no" on an element declaration. Daffodil says that's not 
legal:

Attribute 'dfdl:textBidi' is not allowed to appear in element 'xs:element'.

The DFDL specification says this:

Annotation: dfdl:element, dfdl:simpleType (representation text)

Which is right - the DFDL specification or Daffodil?

/Roger
