Deprecated in HTML5, but from HTML 4:
The <http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#adef-rel> rel and
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#adef-rev> rev attributes
play complementary roles -- the
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#adef-rel> rel attribute
specifies a forward link and the
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#adef-rev> rev attribute
specifies a reverse link.

Small problem there though Chaals: @rev is now obsolete in HTML5...
