Currently it isn't clear what happens if @href-(this-is-inserted-to-avoid-notification-in-migration) is updated on the import \<link\>
elements. The spec should (probably informally) mentioned that 
it loads new import.

This should be addressed in HTML spec

Actually this should be addressed in whatever spec defines the rel="" attribute's value, whichever that is. That's not currently HTML.

See here for how it's done for rel=stylesheet:

It's not necessarily the case that you want to do it the same way.
