Use of owl:equivalentProperty with owl:AnnotationProperty

Dear all,

This is a newbie question, so please bear with me if the answer is obvious or has been answered elsewhere...

From what I can see, the OWL Syntax does not allow axioms stating that two annotation properties are equal [1]. Is there a particular reason for that design decision? My use case is to align two vocabularies and have found property pairs that are equivalent. I realise that I can use owl:subPropertyOf instead but the properties really are equivalent.

Thanks for any insight,

Lars
