[Bug 16510] microformats wiki existing-rel-values page not consulted for <a rel='category tag'>

To further complicate matters, there appears to be another error in the
Microformats wiki entry in question...and WordPress, for that matter.

Since @rel "..must have a value that is a set of space-separated tokens..."
[1], the entry in question is invalid because Keyword contains a space :-(  I
suspect what WordPress means to spit out is @rel='category-tag' and will also
open an issue with them on that matter.

Given @rel='category tag', if the validator is doing what it should, it is
looking for entries (either in the HTML5 spec or the microformats wiki) for
@rel='category' and @rel='tag'.  Since @rel='tag' is in the HTML5 spec it
should be looking in the microformats wiki for @rel='category', which does have
an entry with a Status of "proposed".  But since *that* entry is also invalid
because there is no spec, we're back where we we started (invalid entry but the
validator should not be flagging an error because the entry is marked as
"proposed").
