As Jacob said, this is why the specification suggests that rendering programs
allow the user to select the option of defaulting CLIPPING to on or off.

Huh?  In that case, the uncertified primitive is not back-face-culled, but the
certified part is bfc'ed.  How do want to improve this?  The rendering engine
can't bfc un-certified files.

Nope.  No subfile in a rendering, which is below an uncertified file, can assume
it is normal or inverted.  It doesn't matter if we define CLIPPING as local or
passed-down.
