I don't think it is a completely nonsense term: there is navigation to pages
which are meta to the site (eg. 'about', 'privacy', 'copyright', etc), and
thus could be termed "meta-navigation" in the same sense that the "local" in
Local Navigation also refers to the link referents, not the actual links
themselves (in which case the only "local navigation" link in common use
today would be a "skip over nav links to get to content" link).

If there's a better term, then lets hear it.
