Hi,

I must admit, i am not able to see the advantage of storing information 
about a person or object in a link instead of in a field. In fields you can 
store 

name: Joe
familiy: Doe
father: Alfred Doe
mother: Beatrix Doe
spouse: Foo Bar
course-about-hacking: attended

The last one might be solved differently by storing a list of attendants in 
a tiddler "course about hacking" of course. Now you could write macros to 
style links based on that information. And you would have all the 
information in the one place where it makes sense istead of scattered over 
many tiddlers and many links. – But let’s assume it makes sense in some 
contexts. 

Question: how would HTML handle the additional relation information?  Could 
it be presented to users in a useful and accessible way?

And a short reminder: HTML anchors  (a) already can have *type* and *rel* 
attributes – both are not supported by the link widget at the moment, but 
there are indeed some kinds of relations already covered to be aware of.

 One last provocation: How about [[ Joe (stepson) | Joe Doe ]] ?

Goodnight ;–)
Thomas
