Comment:
The text in 4.12.4.17.1 conflicts with existing practice, older (e.g. HTML 4)
descriptions, and the brief summary in the table at the start of 4.12.4, where
&quot;index&quot; is described thusly: &quot;Gives a link to the document that provides a
table of contents or index listing the current document&quot;. Please let
rel=&quot;index&quot; mean just an index, rel=&quot;toc&quot; a table of content (quite different
in practice and in theory!), and &quot;top&quot; the main page of a site (a very common
link type). The keyword &quot;contents&quot; should be treated as an obsolete synonym
for &quot;toc&quot; (or vice versa, really a matter of taste, just make some decision).
