No; it's not a use case. I was just demonstrating that the attributes 
are easy to parse with XSLT.

More generally, I don't have time to spend more time on the wiki. As I 
mentioned the other day, I spent tons of time on this earlier, and I'm 
too busy with other things now.

A user may not care where the data is stored internally, buy they do 
care whether the content they see on the screen is interpreted as 
metadata (properties, really).

If we're talking about Elias' use case, and you want to start the 
document with some RDF data, then as I've said before, I'd just 
transform it into the attribute-enhanced content, and transform it back 
if it needed to be exported.
