It makes sense to me, an image element can have a src attribute of "image.jpg" and have a mask set to "mask.svg" in the mask CSS property [1]. The equivalents here are the href attribute and the mask attribute, It's just that in your case you want to specify a solid colour to mask instead of an image, so you would omit the href attribute. That said, I'm not opposed to the creation of a new link relation with option A.2 if that's what people would prefer. Ben 1. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/mask
