When working on a Custom Element, if Shadow DOM is turn on, selectors like
[dir="rtl"] .foo
in Custom Element’s CSS won’t work, unless you adddir
attribute to an element inside the Shadow DOM.While the workaround could work, it’s not really a good idea to add
dir
attribute when it’s not necessary, e.g. if the value of:root[dir]
has changed, you have to make sure thedir
also gets updated in your Shadow DOM.So I’m proposing to add an option to transform
:dir()
selector for Shadow DOM, i.e. instead of creating a leading[dir]
selector, create leading:host-context([dir])
selector, in this way, Shadow DOM will be aware of the directional context of where the component is living in.This is not very perfect as this will also transform global CSS, i.e. CSS rules that are not in any components. But I don’t have a good idea of how the plugin can figure out whether or not the current rule is part of Shadow DOM or not. So perhaps developers can preprocess global CSS separately from Shadow DOM CSS.
