This calls for an extended link; e.g.
<xhtml:object xlink:type=""extended">
<href xlink:type="locator" xlink:href="http://link.example.com"/>
<longdesc xlink:type="locator" xlink:href="http://desc.example.com"/>
</xhtml:object>
(Yes, you could do this in a more complicated fashion with labels and
arcs too, but I think this works for XHTML.)
I don't know that I'd say this is better than what XHTML has now, but
it is absolutely possible.
