The HTML spec has *both* REL and REV.   Both attributes can be lists
of relationships.  The occurence of a relationship in the REV  
(reverse) list indicates a relationship in th ereverse direction.
Otherwise, you have to have a convention for indicating logically
reverse relationships (eg is-child; has-child) or some
out of band system for knowing that

	A  is-parent-of	B

implies and is implied b by

	B  is-child-of	A

Is there any document where REV is present withouit REL?
