I am not sure we are in agreement here, but I may misunderstand you.
In my understanding, the correct solution for encoding your example,
ie, the reference to Paolo and Ciccarese, is to use multiple targets
in the same annotation. One target is for 'Paolo' and the other is for
'Ciccarese'. Each of those targets may use several selectors, but
each of those selectors should address 'Paolo' (resp. 'Ciccarese') in
some way or another.
Conceptually, at least in my mind, having several targets in the same
annotation is like adding an annotation on the 'combination' (without
specifying what 'combination' means) of the targets. That is the
reason of keeping them in the same annotation.
Is this what you meant?
