Certain RDFa attributes are very useful on the root element. @vocab and
@prefix for example.

More useful would probably be to drop the magic @about from <head> and
<body>. Or perhaps, only have magic @about on them when @typeof is
found, as I believe the intention of the magic @about was to make stuff
like this work:

	<body typeof="foaf:Document">

without creating a blank node.
