Actually, the approach to provide a set of links in a dedicated document, as described in the "linkset" I-D, could be used for that purpose, see https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wilde-linkset-06. |

Following Appendix A of https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nottingham-link-hint-02, the Link Hint JSON structure can be serialized in a
Linkheader.However, this seems to result in rather large
Linkheaders, and it seems a strange precedent to stuff JSON in headers.What is the design rationale behind this?
Aren't we better off just linking to a Link Hints document (which could be cached and, with HTTP/2, be pushed)?
