Steps to reproduce:

Selectors Level 4 (http://dev.w3.org/csswg/selectors4/#dir-pseudo) specifies the :dir() pseudo-class (:dir(ltr) and :dir(rtl)), which allows the author to write selectors that represent an element based on its HTML5 directionality (see http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-directionality). This is a very useful capability for bidi support.

Note: this capability was originally proposed as :ltr and :rtl. This was eventually changed to the :dir(ltr|rtl) syntax.

This is basically a duplicate of bug 562169 but with the new syntax, right?
