Re: Fwd: Qry : Link to show is different then Link will Open -- source of Insecurity ? [-- Corrections]

Dear Web Security Context WG,


In my last post, I found few (important,technical)
errors (i am correcting here),

last Post :
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-usable-authentication/2007Mar/0000.html
  
Correction 1 :  
>  1. one can create html page (and html e-mail also)
>  in
>  which when content is rendered enduser show the

>  http://www.hackerpage.example1.com

it should be 

http://www.example1.hackerpage.com  instead of 
http://www.hackerpage.example1.com 

(change in Domain name)

Correction 2 :

It should be www.actualbank.hackerpage.com



Is it possible to have  Browser/Tool/User Agents  be
made more Intelligent like when html/xhtml/ content is
having "Link to show"  (www.actual.com)  is different
then "Link to  open" (www.actual.dummy.com) it will
Alert the Enduser (or atleast display both links) ?


If yes, 
	Is this approach **really reduce** the  phishing/Fake
E-mail/Embedded html attack ?
(**without reducing usability for normal computer
users**) 


Regreting for the errors,


Waiting for feedback and suggestoins, 


Thanks,
