It's worth speculating how this would work in an alternate universe
where authors cared more about usability and user agents made more
intelligent use of HTML. Most of the usecases mentioned involve
differentiating sets of links, and deciding how they should be treated
on behalf of users. HTML includes many ways of classifying anchor links
into groups (rel/rev, type, hreflang, class), such that users really
ought to be able to make such decisions for themselves. In the
mirrorverse, user agents would come with customizable behaviours for
classifications such as:
rel="external"
rel="help"
type="application/pdf"
