-1 to class="url"

rel="bookmark" would be a more POSH way of marking up that relationship:

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html#type-links

rel="help" is also an option - we should re-use pre-existing HTML
LinkTypes where appropriate.

However, I believe that there is also a problem with examples. Most of
the hAudio examples deal with the final location of the hAudio data and
rarely point elsewhere. We'd need more examples before adding this to
hAudio (per the Microformats process).

I'm not arguing that it's not useful, just arguing that we don't have
enough examples to support adding that feature to hAudio right now.
