I had this argument once, back in DS, and ended up telling someone who wanted to control all links to her stuff that she was fundamentally misunderstanding the nature of the web, which, well, she was.
It's become more and more common to see, though, and I basically ignore it unless an author has a story that is ONLY archived at a non-blog/lj personal website where the front page has a specific request to link to the front page, rather than individual stories. If they've archived that story ANYWHERE else, I'll link there instead, because wtf.
