Two thoughts:

   * Testing in Chrome, opening the long description involved moving focus to a
imperceptible link. I think that contravenes WCAG2's Visible Focus requirement.
   * Normally, "rel" specifies a relationship between the destination and the
current document, not a relationship between the destination and a component of
the current document. So I think you'd need to use some other attribute(s),
like "resource" from RDFa (something like I suggested above) or "itemprop" from
Microdata.
