Logically I would assume the simple string comparison in section 5.3.1 of RFC3987, but I was hoping this would be documented somewhere more explicitly. An atom:id is an IRI too, but it explicitly specifies character-by-character, case-sensitive comparisons. By not doing the same for link relations the spec kind of leaves things open to interpretation.
RFC3986, section 6 and RFC3987, section 5 document this procedure very well. The comparison ladder reduces false negatives in exchange for processing effort. If you think the ladder is worth climbing in this case, go for it. -- Robert Sayre "I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time."
