In my opinion this would be an important problem. How should nested links work? Suppose I put href="http://a" on <p> element and href="http://b" on a <span> inside that <p>. What should happen when the user clicks on that <span>? That's the reason why nested <a>'s are forbidden by HTML 4 and XHTML 1. I'm not against href on every element, but then nesting elements with href attribute should be forbidden. Similarly href should be forbidden on interactive elements (buttons etc.), so making it global would be a problem. -- Pawe? Stradomski
