Comment:

 It may be true that it's possible to ''format'' links as you wish.
 However, there are many other potential uses for a function that returns a
 value that can be used in conditional statements. For example, if the
 theme designer wants something completely different to happen when there
 is/isn't a "next" link.

 There are also lots of posts in the forum requesting this functionality,
 for example:
