https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22948 --- Comment #2 from Jason Kiss <jason@accesscult.org> --- If a <link> has an @href and a certain @rel value, it creates a hyperlink. It doesn't act as a "normal" hyperlink. If the <link> has a @rel, it is restricted to the <head>. [1] Hyperlinks are "generally exposed to the user by the user agent so that the user can cause the user agent to navigate to those resources, e.g. to visit them in a browser or download them." [2] For a <link> that creates a hyperlink, I'm assuming that if this were to be exposed to the user, it would be via some additional browser UI or functionality. As such, in either case (hyperlink or external resource link), the <link> is not mapped via the accessibility API. So we can keep a single entry for <link> "Not mapped" across the board. Does that make sense?
