It may be useful to develop mechanisms to allow browsers to determine the display form preferred by a target site, and then for browsers to display that form. One could foresee something being developed along the lines of the favicon approach. The mechanisms would need to have restrictions put into place to address misrepresentations. For example, the browser should verify that the site’s preferred display for
