Sorry I missed this when looking at the Annotation context. I would think you should be able to update it, though.

Great.

Note the difference in the JSON-LD spec between Typed Values [1] and Aliased Keywords [2]. Keywords have special meaning in JSON-LD (aliased or not), as they are core to how the processing model works. Note that you also can’t set @container or @language on a keyword alias.

Alternatively, that keys in an expanded term definition other than @id MUST be ignored, or MUST NOT be present, generating an exception. Personally, I favor requiring them to be simple term definitions. This should probably result in an exception for 1.0 processors as well, as otherwise it is silently ignored.
