You do usually at the moment, but I think you don't - you then want to make
a decision about what linkage to get, based on your knowledge of reliability
and utility of sources, probably combined with what the publisher
recommends.
So the RDF you get back from resolving one of our URIs such as
http://southampton.rkbexplorer.com/id/person-00021 gives recommended
coreference KBs by having things like:
<owl:Ontology rdf:about=""> ... <coref:coreferenceData
rdf:resource="http://southampton.rkbexplorer.com/crs/person-00021" />

So you can find the coreference data without leaving the Linked Data world
or hacking URIs. But you don't have to take it.
