*appears* that only the standard disallows this at the moment - the actual browsers handle it just fine.

This is probably more a question of whether we should allow this in HTML then whether or not we can allow this in browsers as browsers pretty much have to support this anyway.

I personally think we should allow this for cases as demonstrated by this site:

(Disclaimer: I have worked on that site three years ago.)


(I agree that a global href="" attribute would not be very feasible given all the other attributes <a> has.)
