Yea, already thought about that one.  I'll make it perfectly clear that
including specific nodes in hypertext is *forbidden* in the protocol.

How do we enforce this?  We'll basically have two ways of interpreting a
URL depending on how it's entered.  All URLs in hypertext go through a
special function that disallows specific node references.

So assuming that a good >90% of people don't hack up the webbrowser to get
around this (there's no good reason for it) this will be a strong
incentive to make it comply with our URL rules.
