Feed discovery only works while being on a HTML site which actively publishes
the feed with the <link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" .../>-Tag.

When being on an ATOM 1.0 feed itself (xml-site), though the atom feed contains
an <link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" .../> tag, it will not be found
by channel discovery of SAGE.

I think it would improve the application handling to be able to discover the
current site as feed also, because the user might have come to the feed not via
SAGE but via a direct link.
