The reason I disagree with this is that the value of @type doesn't convey
the fact that the link points to a printer-friendly alternative.  If you
could do something like 'type="text/html;media=print"', then sure, but
without information like that, there's no way to automatically select the
appropriate alterative representation for a particular use.

My interpretation of the spec is that having two alternate tags with
the types: text/html and text/html;media=print is completely legal.
Is that correct?  If so, is this a case where it might be helpful to
establish best practices for content-type parameters?

Just to be sure this is clear, "media=print" is something I invented for this discussion. If "media=print" were a valid parameter for text/html, then yes, as I understand it, that would be legal in Atom -- I can't see any reason why it wouldn't or shouldn't.
