You can disable native_spans and bracketed_spans.
If you're getting a lot of dir="ltr", it is because your Word
documents have these 'dir' annotations on every paragraph.
I'm not sure why they would if they're English documents.
I'm not sure under what circumstances Word includes these,
but we might consider being less aggressive about adding
them. They should only be necessary when the document language
is a RTL language.
I'd welcome feedback from others who have been getting these
ltr spans.

(I think this has to do with lettering direction? All docs are in English, but people might have Word configured differently...)
