No problem Poul. And by the way, welcome aboard. :)

And now from my point of view, it is not an issue of link popularity in the first place. Is is a pure accessibility and usability issue. And that is semantically the right way to go too.

If you do not want to share link popularity within your own pages, you could use the link attribute rel="nofollow", but I don't see a reason why you should do that. If you have a reason, please explain.
