Also, is this really intended to affect things other than links (eg. images and other resources)? rel=noreferrer only works on links. Also, note noreferrer's effect on "opener", which is probably appliable here as well: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/links.html#link-type-noreferrer -- Glenn Maynard
