 In all honesty, I don't think this is going to be fixed in any way that
 actually is useful.

 We could work with the Gravatar folk to add a JS callback, or we can
 probably add a JS callback that watches for elements added into that Div,
 and attach the `rel` to it at that point.. BUT this has almost zero
 benefit, as any client is not going to be rendering Javascript IMHO.

 We're not going to sync all Gravatar data for WordPress.org profiles over
 to profiles.wordpress.org, there's just too many user accounts to make
 that worthwhile.

 I forgot that we even have this functionality honestly, as it's blocked in
 my browser.

 If I was to add the `rel=me` via JS, it'd probably satisfy most people,
 and they'd never notice it isn't actually useful...
