Anchor Element <a>:

Consider adding to contexts in which this may be used: as a child of  
a <figure> element.

Consider including an example of an idref URI to a document fragment  
on the same page like

<nav>
  <ul>
   <li> <a href="/">Home</a> </li>
   <li> <a href="/news">News</a> </li>
   <li> <a>Examples</a> </li>
   <li> <a href="#signon" >Signon</a> </li>
   <li> <a href="/legal">Legal</a> </li>
  </ul>
</nav>

I am concerned along with others about the security issues  
surrounding the @ping attribute. I'm still working to understand the  
security implications and also whether the server-side alternatives  
proposed meet the needs of authors users.
