I expect a rich editing box to act like a word document - "only acts paragraph-level", not like a textarea - that should change the writing direction for all content.

Will changing the behavior for divs affect the behavior for rich editing (in Gmail for example)?
if it will, then it should not be changed IMO.
if not, then i don't have a strong opinion in this matter- while I see the paragraph-level behavior as superior, and generally a good thing... being consistent with FF/IE is also good.

btw if you test Firefox with the test case above, and press Ctrl+Shift+X while the div has focus (won't work the other way around), you will find that it changes the direction in the textarea too! that makes no sense... only FF does that
