Comment (by Marventus):

 @pbiron, I just joined the conversation on the forums about this
 ([http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-abuses-rel-tag?]). You can
 see my reply there.
 Since 'rel="category' seems to only cause potential problems in HTML5, why
 not take your parameter idea, which is great, and make it so that its
 default value is automatic ("auto") and relies on a theme Doctype check
 which would only output the category value if doctype is not HTML5?
