If I may humbly propose, a show: attribute that would be of considerable value is show="store". Presently, there are situations where resources should be downloaded, contrary to standard browser behavior. In situations like that, the web master must either instruct users to "right click and Save Target As" or hide the true nature of the file by storing it in an archival format (e.g. zip, tar). A show="store" attribute would allow a webmaster to choose an appropriate default for unsophisticated users, while allowing advanced users to override the webmaster's choice.
