RSS Autodiscovery

I have just been looking at #showRSSAutodiscoveryLink()

it only generates one link line for me,

 <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS" 
       href="http://blogs.sun.com/DaveLevy/feed/entries/rss" />

which as you can see is RSS line, not Atom.  The title is a bit simple 
isn't it, I'd have thought one could have used the weblog title as part 
of the generated title value?

Is this the designed behaviour?

Dave,

There is a better macro that will give you Atom as well.

#showAutodiscoveryLinks($model.weblog)

The titles here are more like "Recent Entries (Atom)" etc. The older  
#showRSSAutodiscoveryLink() macro looks to be deprecated.
