[Bug 7543] Consensus on ietf-http-wg was that repetition of relations is meaningless and we should rather use numbering (e.g. "up2"), names (e.g. "great-grandparent") or an attribute (e.g. level="3").

My preference is for an attribute, as this is backwards compatible with agents
looking for "up" while still allowing more capable software to know "how far
up". If you only have one level you can only advertise one level, but if you
extend this to an arbitrary number of levels then you can advertise the whole
hierarchy which is useful for features like breadcrumbs.
