Strictly speaking, additional values should probably be defined in a profile. This in itself probably wouldn't achieve very much though, since the HTML 4.0 recommendation says nothing about the form a profile should take. In general, there's no harm in putting it in - either a UA recognises it or it does not. LINKs as a whole seem for the most part to be rather poorly implemented for some reason. Tim Bagot
