i am not quite sure what you mean by "a link pointing to a hypermedia
control". a link *is* a hypermedia control (or part of one, if you mean
just the URI when talking about a link), which then points to a
resource, right?
anyway, depending on the scenario, the following might help:
if a resource links to an alternative representation, then use
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/links.html#rel-alternate which is intended to
do exactly that. if you also would like to annotate the link with an
expected media type, then hopefully the hypermedia format containing the
link supports resource hints
(https://github.com/dret/hyperpedia/blob/master/concepts.md#target-resource-hints),
and then such a hint can be used to represent a media type that
annotates the link.

sounds like "alternate" is the way to go, then.
cheers,
