Do you want to know how widespread it is or just convince yourself 
that it works?

If the former, I'd guess the most common cases are complete headings 
and list items placed in A elements, but I'd have to hunt for a while 
to dig up an example. I'll keep my eyes open. I used to do this sort 
of stuff myself, but I've gotten a lot more careful since I started 
working with XML.

If the latter, it's not hard to mock up a page that does this. I just 
tested it by by an A link from inside to outside a paragraph and it 
worked in the first browser I tried.
