If it would lead to as much work as you say then at least a verbal

Please go ahead and suggest something, see

Not very easy to come with a one size fits all definition but maybe this
would be help:
|direction| (direction):
|1|
A value -1, 0 or 1 meaning whichever of (left, center or right) or
(down, center or up) makes sense for this layout object. #LEFT,
#CENTER, #RIGHT and #DOWN, #CENTER, #UP may be used instead of the numbers.
I would also suggest adding something to the default values listed under
the property name which would give a further hint to the meaning.
For example the property definition for the BarNumber layout object
might read:
direction (direction)
1 (#UP)
A value -1, 0 or 1 meaning whichever of (left, center or right) or
(down, center or up) makes sense for this layout object. #LEFT=-1,
#CENTER=0, #RIGHT=1 and #DOWN=-1, #CENTER=0, #UP=1 may be used instead
of the numbers.
