Where we all used to be i.e., DNA inherited from Linked Data, which 
inherits from AWWW etc..

Remember, we already have WebID implementations for other URI schemes. 
Been so for years. Same even applies to Linked Data itself, we've had 
non http: resolvers for years. Ultimately URI's are the optimal focal

specific, and for the very wrong reasons.
