	Actually, this is legal HTML. The W3C HTML 4.01 recommendation,
section 12.2 (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#h-12.2), even
provides a similar example. The caveat is that each name value must be
unique within a document, so you can't simply reuse "foo", for example, over
and over again.
