Given the number of links out there that perform non-idempotent and unsafe actions, and the number of buttons that perform idempotent and safe actions, I'd be quite surprised by that.

They don't understand mechanism, nor should they need to. > Also, the fact that it's possible to *obscure* that Not only possible, but commonly done.
