Yes. Using a safe-CURIE wouldn't have prevented that, but at least it

Wait, you can't use URIs as rel values, because "next" is just as
valid a URI as "http://www.w3.org/foo". You would have to have a 'safe
uri' format such as "<next>" and "<http://www.w3.org/foo>" to make it
possible to interpret a rel directly as a URI.
The string "next" is a URI reference
(<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc3986.html#rfc.section.4.1>), not a
URI (<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc3986.html#rfc.section.3>).
Sorry, I was using the term URI as it is used as a datatype in HTML4. The
datatype of @href in HTML4 is "URI", which as you point out, is called a
URI reference in other contexts.
Best wishes,
Steven
