+nesting
+
+The documentation writes about "nesting":
+Allows links to be nested; no drivers currently support this.
+
+All places in the code where \ifHy@nesting is used are about anchors, not links.
+\ifHy@nesting is false in all drivers, so actually nowhere the true code is used. 
+
+It is unclear if nesting can be used, and what use it would have.
