Why make it a link if you aren't linking to anything?

[andrewfromx]

so you don't have to set "cursor: pointer" in css

[KTibow]

You should really use a button for this. Using anything else is semantically incorrect, and the "it comes with bad styles" argument doesn't make sense given a CSS reset is under 10 lines of code, or even less if you use the `all` style.

And it gives some baseline accessibility functionality. Sucks that there isn't any gerneral "I am clickable" element that neither has bad default click behavior, nor has its own likely-unfitting styling.

why avoid so hard to make it a `submit` for a `<form method="POST" action="/logout">`, which is semantically correct and removes all the need for any javascript (logouts have never needed JS after all)?
