For the citation case, why not:

<odf:Element odf:idref="id" rdf:about="uri:elementURI"/>

<b:Citation rdf:about="uri:elementURI">
   ...
</b:Citation>

<odf:MetaDataFile rdf:about="http://someNamedGraph";>
    <rdf:type rdf:resource="http://opendocument.org/Citation"/>
</odf:MetaDataFile>

...?

E.g. type the field itself.
