yes... but if there's no anchor for #top what will the UA do? According
to the HTML-specs this is not defined. Only IE interprets a <a
href="#top">Top</a> as a pointer to the top of the page, all others UA I
tested do ignore it if the appropriate anchor is missing.

which would then irritate text only UA users, as they are no longer
taken to the top of their page, which is at #accessibility :-) sometimes
one has to trade off things...

but thanks for your suggestions
