--- Comment #2 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
It should not be "text orientation" but "writing mode".
It is a property of the cell. It is written to file in child element
<style:table-cell-properties> of a <style:style> element of family
"table-cell".

The UI term "vertical (bottom to top)" generates in file format the attribute
loext:writing-mode="bt-lr". It has 'loext' prefix because
style:writing-mode="sideways-lr" will only be available with ODF 1.4.

The UI term "vertical (top to bottom)" generates in file format the attribute
style:writing-mode="tb-lr".

This is for tables in Writer.
