FYI on registration request received by IANA:

Attribute Value: up

Description: A URI that refers to a parent document in a hierarchy of
documents.

Expected display characteristics: Undefined; this relation can be used for
background processing or to provide extended functionality without
displaying its value.

Security considerations: Automated agents should take care when this
relation crosses administrative domains (e.g., the URI has a different
authority than the current document). Such agents should also take care to
detect circular references.

Type of Assignment :
An addition to the Atom Link Relations assignment.

Registry :
Atom Link Relations

http://www.iana.org/assignments/link-relations.html

Description :
The Atom Link Relations assignment has provisions for linking within series
of Atom documents but I also wish to express linking within a hierarchical
collection of Atom documents.

To do this, I would like to add an "up" relation to the assignment.

Additional Info :
The "up" relation is already used by a significant number of HTML authors
and this precedent is codified in the current HTML5 work. See section
5.11.3.18.2.:
