Specification
Summary
The :local-link pseudo-class allows authors to style hyperlinks based on the users current location within a site. It represents an element that is the source anchor of a hyperlink whose target’s absolute URL matches the element’s own document URL. If the hyperlink’s target includes a fragment URL, then the fragment URL of the current URL must also match; if it does not, then the fragment URL portion of the current URL is not taken into account in the comparison.

Motivation
It's common to style the active page in a list of links differently the others to denote the user is on such a page. This typically requires maintaining such state in the host language, such as the server side template language, or in the client. `:local-link` provides a browser built-in solution to this.
