To me it seems as we are trying to add two RDF statements in one 
text:meta-label (= the new attribute name is fine for me).

I assume that "Jane Doe" is the patient, who is described as 
"http://ex.net/contacts/2";.
Why not say the following:

    <text:meta-label
        meta:about="http://ex.net/contacts/2";
        meta:property="ex:salutation">Dear Jane Doe</text:meta-label>

and moving the triple
<http://ex.net/contacts/1> <http://medical.org/patient> 
<http://ex.net/contacts/2> .
into RDF/XML?

IMHO by giving the label a RDF predicate describing the label the need 
of the meta:resource is no longer given and the usage of less attributes 
makes it easier for the user.
