ISSUE-187: Link/Rel to MOK versions of non-MOK resources

Link/Rel to MOK versions of non-MOK resources

Description:
In his e-mail of 6 March [1], Luca asked a question that I think raises a valid
point. If device/browser A visits a MOK URI and, based on information available
about the device, is redirected to a non MOK resource that gives a better user
experience, if the user bookmarks the site, the bookmark will be for the non MOK
resource.

There are other instances where this behaviour is undesireable. Session IDs and
cookies can make it difficult to bookmark certain pages, still less share that
bookmark.

As evidence for this problem not being new, can I draw your attention to the
list of HTML 4 link relationship types [2]. One of the types defined there is,
guess what, bookmark. In other words, the mechanism is already defined for how
one can include a link tag on a page and say \"if you bookmark me, use this URI\".

So here\'s the issue: Should we recommend that resources that resolve from URIs
that are reached after a negotiation/redirection process include a link
rel=\"bookmark\" tag with the href of the entry point URI?

If so, can a non MOK resource that includes such a link be considered MOK
(assuming the entry point URI is MOK).

Is this a fudge too far or is it a practical step?

Phil.

In preparation of F2F in Sophia:
- very old ISSUE, not sure if the discussion ended on something.
- wonder if the end of the discussion doesn't link to ISSUE-222 (on representing alternative representations).
- propose to close the ISSUE
