Has there been any discussion about the idea of having the documentation link 
to web.archive.org
or webcitation.org for these broken entities? What about the idea of 
establishing new webcitation.org
links for any new entites generated? It's a mixed bag, I know - you gain the 
fact that links will
continue to work after the hosts have gone away, but you're no longer pointing 
directly to a regularly
updated source...
