Roughly 75 percent of my browsing time is spent with Lynx and a DOS screen
reader.  I've never found multiple links on a single line to be a problem.
I think this is especially true given the fact that Lynx can number all
linkss.

This might be another suggestion to include and seems like a good idea.
But I'd still rather know about a link be default.  I'd assume, as
dangerous as it might be, that a page designer careful enough to tag
unimportant images with alt="" would do a good job of making a page
accessible.
