                    distinguished from regular text fields, the Search
                    state might result in an appearance consistent with
                    the platform's search fields rather than appearing
                    like a regular text field.  If the element is mutable,

Comment:
listic: on platforms where search fields are distinguished from regular text
fields, the Search state might result in an appearance consistent with the
platform's search fields rather than appearing like a regular text field.  If
the element is mutable, its value should be editable by the user. User agents
must not allow users to insert U+000A LINE FEED (LF) or U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN
(CR) characters into the element's value.  If the element is mutable, the user
agent should allow the user to change the writing direction of the element,
setting it either to a left-to-right writing direction or a right-to-left
writing direction. If the user does so, the user agent must then run the
following steps:  Set the element's dir attribute to "ltr" if the user
selected a left-to-right writing direction, and "rtl" if the user selected a
right-to-left writing direction.  Queue a task to fire a simple event that
bubbles named input at the input element.  The value attribute, if specified,
must have a value that contains no U+000A LINE FEED (LF) or U+000D CARRIAGE
RETURN (CR) characters.  The value sanitization algorithm is as follows: Strip
line breaks from the value.
