Sources here tell me there are not currently any efforts within the IETF
to standardize any hypertext stuff. There is a Working Group called URI
(Universal Resource Indentifers), and they are involved in this area.

There are some Internet-Drafts on the subject from this working group.
One of them is on URL's, available via anonymous ftp from:

ftp.ietf.cnri.reston.va.us:/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-07.txt

You may want to direct your question to the chair of the working group:

Larry Masinter <masinter@parc.xerox.com>

or to the Working group itself:

uri@bunyip.com
