Yes. I have things like that on a page or two. Graphics only link leads
to the page(s) with intensive graphics content. Content is probably the wrong
word, since it's usually some graphic extravaganza without much content
and very low value to Lynx users.
Pages which have some content (pie chart, for example) have an
alternate text only page (with ASCII graphics) and link to that page
looks like this:
<A HREF="textish.html"><IMG SRC="t.gif" ALT="Here be ASCII graphics"></A>
where t.gif is single pixel transparent gif. That link can be selected from
graphical browser, but I don't think it's very likely. :)
Both links are on the same page, but not at the same position.
I don't mind if what you intend to do ends up in the official distribution.
However, I prefer the current behaviour.
