I rather like that. Wish browsers were better about integrating feed-related features. + +We may be able to integrate such feature by adding a plugin that rewrites the head link tag into something visible in the body.

In Dillo there is already a [hack to inject a table at the beginning of a page](https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/blob/master/src/html.cc#L3104-L3110) to "support" the meta refresh tag, but I want to use this as an example to make the design of plugins that can do those tasks, instead of making more hacks.
