 From which, and picking up on Nathans thread.

I like the idea of metadata in the link endpoint document indicating
that 'source.xml' links to this document. Assists in not screwing links.

Peter, as well as link types, what information do you need to know about 
a link
to present it in a suitable manner?
I.e. is there a required/optional set of link properties that would 
assist in
your particular usage (presentation I believe is your issue)?

Peter pointed out that it might be useful to know that the link target is
a document (can be dereferenced?) as apposed to a car (RDF links?).

Perhaps 'last validated' with a date, to address stale links?

What other properties are useful for you?
