And I also find it troublesome. I propose allowing <a> as a child of <figure> in the case it has only one child which is an <img> (with no "significant text" around it). Here's an example (in French, but you'll get the idea "visually") of where I'd have needed a linked image within a figure (don't look at the markup, it's awful: generated with WordPress' WYSIWYG editor) -- Thomas Broyer
