The specifications says:

        "User agents should enable activation of links and the 
        retrieval of link targets."
        
- What does that mean to "enable activation of links"?
- Does that mean it should do prefetching of resources in some case?

        "Since link elements may have no content, information 
        from the rel and title attributes should be used when 
        labelling links."

- It would be better to avoid normative language (here a MAY), when it is not 
used for its normative meaning. A suggestion.

        " Since link elements can be empty (no content), information 
        from the rel and title attributes should be used when 
        labelling links."

        - What is the meaning of "Embedding, Events, Forms" attribute module on 
an element which is not supposed to be rendered?
        - Emphasize the use of  link at any level of the document not only in 
the "head" element
        
        Example
        http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-xhtml2-20060726/mod-meta.html#sec_23.5.1.
        
        it will be more practical instead of this :
        
        <html xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";>
    <head>
      <link about="#q1" rel="dc:source" href="urn:isbn:0140449132" />
    </head>
    <body>
      <blockquote id="q1">
        <p>
          'Rodion Romanovitch! My dear friend! If you go on in this way
          you will go mad, I am positive! Drink, pray, if only a few drops!'
        </p>
      </blockquote>
    </body>
  </html>
        
        to do this
        
        <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2002/06/xhtml2/";
              xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";
          xml:lang="en">
      <h property="title">Books and Quotation corner</h>
      <blockquote id="q1">
        <p>
          'Rodion Romanovitch! My dear friend! If you go on in this way
          you will go mad, I am positive! Drink, pray, if only a few drops!'
        </p>
      <link about="#q1" rel="dc:source" href="urn:isbn:0140449132" />
      </blockquote>
  </html>
