 'm using rel="external" to flag external links.

 However, the XFN stuff limits the available rel choices to social media
 tags; which are worthless to me.

 I would like to either add "external" as a choice, or have the ability to
 directly edit the rel.

 Another option is the ability to assign a class to the link.

 I'm told this is a bug. I notices a similar issue in ticket 12551 (closed)
 and 2501(closed)

 However, this is unacceptable. You need to be able to add some way to mark
 a link as "external." It can be using rel (considered the "proper" way),
 or via a class.

 This is a very minor issue. I am working around it by using "me," and
 assigning the "external" style to that (yuck).
