Why have that at all? META is there for meta information about the
document, or for additional "pseudo-http" headers. Adding the URL
attribute makes little sense. If you need to define document
relationships, use the LINK element:

<LINK REL=refresh HREF="bla">

(This way you can't specify a timeout, but I think that's a good
thing)

I am reminded of the INPUT element.
