This clearly falls equally under the W3C's purvue--at least, if you consider implementing it as additional attributes to the anchor tag rather than welding it to URI syntax. It seems like an almost ideal XHTML or HTML4.x addition. Greg

link fingerprints Posted Jan 5, 2008 12:18 UTC (Sat) by gerv (subscriber, #3376) [Link] I wanted to make it part of the URI syntax because then it could be used even in non-HTML contexts - for example, in plain-text emails. But yes, perhaps if that's not going to be achievable, we could get a significant proportion of the benefits by going via WHAT-WG or W3C and adding a new attribute to HTML. Gerv
