Except most users don't want to learn CSS to do such a thing and it's
unweildy to require that a user write CSS to override what comes down
to annoying behavior.
I have to agree that rel="external" is a much more robust solution as
I believe it should be up to the user through the client to make this
kind of decision. We should be specifying things based on semantic
classes. Have we not learned the lessons of the past?
