ISSUE-124 (nofollow-limits): nofollow/noreferrer not allowed on <link> http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/124 Raised by: Julian Reschke On product: There has been some objection to the nofollow and noreferrer relations being limited to the <a> and <area> elements: "It's unclear why these link relations can not appear on a <link> element (the same could be asked about "bookmark" and "external", but let's focus on these for now).... The reasoning: 'to simplify UA requirements' doesn't compute; by treating <a> and <link> differently you actually make things more *complicated*." Others argue that this makes things simpler. The scope of this issue is keeping or removing this limitation on nofollow and noreferrer relations.
