Wouldn't <link rel="accessibility" href="accessibility-report.rdf">
be altogether more suitable?  <meta name="accessibility"
content="http://www.example.org/accessibility-report.rdf"> lacks

accessibility-report.rdf should of course be an AccessValet report,
though it could perhaps also come from AN Other tool.
