These are nice, but the html in them is still a little complex to my 
tastes. There is, for example, nothing that I can see that the <span> 
elements do that could not be done with styles on the links (possibly 
making use of IFSUB).

I would vote for the simplest possible markup defaults--developers who 
need or prefer more complex markup should be able to add in the extra 
pieces if they need them.

These are pretty good. Personally, I'd love to see a image-replaced 
version, but it's currently a very complex thing to do in TYPO3.
