Toby,

That works, but you lose out on the owl:sameAs reasoning front when 
consolidating data from both data spaces [1]. Of course, in my case I am 
using URIBurner to transform data from the likes of Facebook, LinkedIn, 
Google etc., with this kind of union expansion in mind :-)

1. https://plus.google.com/s/owl%3AsameAs%20kidehen -- nearly accurate 
G+ search URL that will deliver a collection of posts and examples re. 
how I use owl:sameAs for data consolidation across a disparate data spaces

2. http://uriburner.com -- clicking on a button of choice will produce a 
linked data graph with URIs that enable further use re. owl:sameAs 
reasoning and resulting union expansion etc..
