Please give me some time. It's way past beer 'o clock at the Hackathon. Tomorrow's another day (JST - Jerusalem Standard Time).

I'm prepared to Be Bold and C+2 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/247914. In my view, by establishing a consistent semantics (first alias preferred) this empowers the local wikis. If a particular wiki decides they prefer to use the English alias in markup, they just have to submit a patch to reorder the aliases for their particular language. This is much better than using some ad hoc mechanism where the choices are arbitrarily made by the Parsoid maintainers or whoever.
However, the patch needs to be rebased. (Sigh.) And the new semanticsordering should really be documented in the code or release notes somewhere, not just in the gerrit/git history.
Eran, if you can do these two things (and Siebrand doesn't scream "stop"), I'm happy to C+2. Arlo is already working on a patch on the Parsoid side which would switch Parsoid to using the first alias everywhere once the change to core is deployed. --scott

Let's get that patch to core +2'ed. Establishing a consistent preference order in core is clearly (IMNSHO) the right thing to do.
Siebrand, could you take a second look at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/247914 ? --scott

And there is a consensus for English being bad choice for RTL languages
as
it cause mixed directional content which should be avoided. So if we go with 1 choice, RTL languages should be exception.
