when constructing your <html> element:

The function getDir() doe not exist currently.
Since directionality is a function of script, it might be wise and come handy, to associate a script code with languages, too. I known, some (very few) languages have several scripts, even ones with differing directionality. In these cases, a script subtag or country subtag is needed anyways for the language from which one can determine the directionality.
