I'm not sure where you got this, but I don't see this at the URL. I see:

    It is suggested that the property rdf:value
    represents a mapping from a resource to textual
    representation of that resource. If for example,
    the resource represents the number 10, then the
    value of the rdf:value property would be the
    string "10".

I think this is very much in scope.

I assume this refers to the renaming bit. I can go along with 
that, but not the rest of the suggestion.

Sounds good.
