On a related albeit a bit offtopic-ish note (apologize for the hijack), block-level links have a "defect" of disabling text selection. Tab (or anyone else, for that matter), given your experience, where do you think this "problem" is best tackled? The what-wg, here (www-style), bug reports on all user-agent trackers...? And by block level links I'm referring to <a> with display:block; or <a> with block level elements inside (as permitted by the HTML5 spec). Now, if you have a paragraph (or a long portion), that text is pretty much unselectable on all user agents apart from mobile, which can cause frustration when using them.
