Norm,

We resolved in the task force that the normative way of following one's 
nose would be via the doctype and DTD, since @about, etc... are defined 
by the DTD for XHTML1.1+RDFa. So I agree with all of the arguments 
you're making, except with regards to the *specifics* of how one follows 
one's nose.

We are using @profile as an extra hint, but we do not consider it 
mandatory. I have come to agree with Manu and Ivan: let's have all our 
test cases use @profile, except for one, since we don't consider it 
mandatory. That shows "best practices" but also parser conformance.
