Body: <p>I'm fairly new to Craft so I could be missing out on some basics.</p>
  <p>I need to import an events feed (xml) using the <a href="https://github.com/engram-design/FeedMe" rel="nofollow noreferrer">FeedMe</a> plugin. The feed has some Link tags.
  Ex.</p>
  <pre class="lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;link rel=&quot;sales&quot; type=&quot;text/html&quot; href=&quot;[LINK TO TICKETSHOP]&quot; /&gt;
  &lt;link rel=&quot;image&quot; href=&quot;[LINK TO IMAGE]&quot; /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>I've got an Asset field but I can't properly set the Feed Element. It only shows <code>&lt;link/@href&gt;</code> or <code>&lt;link/@type&gt;</code>. If I select @href then it goes though all the elements with @href and generates a lot of errors because some aren't assets.</p>
  <p>I've tried <code>&lt;link/@rel=&quot;image&quot;&gt;</code> in the default value field but then it imports the same value for all the Events. So all the Entries end up with the same image.</p>
  <p>Is there a way to manually define the Feed Element?</p>

  I'm fairly new to Craft so I could be missing out on some basics.
  
  I need to import an events feed (xml) using the [FeedMe](https://github.com/engram-design/FeedMe) plugin. The feed has some Link tags.
  Ex.
  
  ```html
  <link rel="sales" type="text/html" href="[LINK TO TICKETSHOP]" />
  <link rel="image" href="[LINK TO IMAGE]" />
  
  ```
  
  I've got an Asset field but I can't properly set the Feed Element. It only shows `<link/@href>` or `<link/@type>`. If I select @href then it goes though all the elements with @href and generates a lot of errors because some aren't assets.
  
  I've tried `<link/@rel="image">` in the default value field but then it imports the same value for all the Events. So all the Entries end up with the same image.
  
  Is there a way to manually define the Feed Element?

  This is actually a bit of an issue with XML-based feeds. To Feed Me, both your node's are `link` nodes. They have different attributes for sure, but Feed Me doesn't identify nodes by their tag *and* attributes, so it'll look at all tags called `link` to get the image.
  
  As you've stated, you'll be getting a bunch of errors due to this. Can you restructure your feed at all? The ideal method would be to rename one to `<image>` for instance.
  
  Right now, there's no way to manually define field mapping, as its already complicated. You're more than welcome to submit a [feature request](https://github.com/engram-design/FeedMe/issues).
