With respect, I disagree totally. Do we want XFN to automatically put a rel
attribute on our links automatically? No, we don't, which is why there is an XFN
panel in the Links management section. Just as we have the choice of whether our
sites are WAI compliant, XTHML Strict compliant, or meet ANY standard is up to
the individual to choose, and that is the way it should stay.
