Not quite 'nowhere' but if support for it doesn't exist there's no way 
more sites will use them. I think the decision to include rel link 
support is the correct one but the execution is rather poor 
unfortunately...

I'll grant that it does appear to be broken very badly at present 
(Debian appears to have disabled it somehow as I no longer have it 
since upgrading to 3.2.2 in experimental). I wish they hadn't made it a 
separate toolbar but instead just made it so that the individual 
buttons could be added to any toolbar (maybe put the 'next' button on 
by default). Or do what the link toolbar extension for Firefox does and 
put the buttons in the statusbar.
