HTML5 ref="noreferer"

Introduction

The HTML5 standard introduced a new attribute for anchors:

rel="noreferrer" "indicates that no referrer information is to be leaked when following the link." No shipping browser currently supports this, but support was recently added to WebKit nightlies, so it will eventually be showing up in Safari, Google Chrome, and other WebKit-based browsers.
