The way we address this as the moment is by adding a @context to the nested
object to redefine properties (terms). The advantage of the solution
proposed by Pierre-Antoine is that it could also be used for legacy JSON
where it is impossible to inject @context definitions into the data.

I created ISSUE-144 for this [1]. Lets continue the discussion there.
