     *  The LayoutDirection class defines the constant values
     *  for the <code>layoutDirection</code> style of an IStyleClient and the 
     *  <code>layoutDirection</code> property of an ILayoutDirectionElement.
     *  
     *  Left-to-right layoutDirection is typically used with Latin-style 
     *  scripts. Right-to-left layoutDirection is used with scripts such as 
     *  Arabic or Hebrew.
     * 
     *  If an IStyleClient, set the layoutDirection style to undefined to
     *  inherit the layoutDirection from its ancestor.
     * 
     *  If an ILayoutDirectionElement, set the layoutDirection property to null to
     *  inherit the layoutDirection from its ancestor.
