Actually, if you read the W3C specs, it really does look like the two would sit quite happily in a single class. In reality, they are semantically the same thing, except one of them is visible and one of them is not. Please have a look over the specs at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/links.html again and let me know what you think. data: and view-source: are just protocols like http:, ftp:, javascript: etc. data: is used to store the file data in the html source (so an image can be encoded in a web page and only one file gets served), view-source: just means to open up the source code viewer for the URL rather than the HTML renderer.
