Not at all. I agree 100% with you on this, Dion.

Why is this necessary at all? Can’t you just markup your already existing tags? I’d rather see additional meta data on them than a totally new way to hyperlink.

I’ve been thinking about this too, specifically because the “application-name” meta tag is used by Google Chrome for the same thing.

But the meta tag for setting the application start url is different, on IE9 it’s “msapplication-starturl” while on Chrome it’s “application-url”, I hope they come up with a solution there.
