I've been considering moving feed history over to atom:link, but
wanted to check with people who are currently using / referring to
it, as well as with the RSS communities. Please give me a little time.

willing to separate their next/previous/first/last link relations
out to a separate spec that could be made a working group draft.
The paging functionality they offer provides a solution to paging
in the protocol and are generally useful across a broad variety of
feed application cases. Regardless, it would be very good to see
these registered.

In case anyone is interested, the OpenSearch Response draft can be
found here:

The rel values they support include next, previous (not prev),
start and end. They have a note next to each saying "This value is
pending IETF registration". Does that mean they've actually
started some kind of registration process or they're just hoping
to do so at some point in the future?
Another issue worth noting is that their example RSS feed is also
using atom:link to provide this functionality.

No, but Amazon OpenSearch has been threatening to register it,
