PROV-ISSUE-172 (TLebo): purpose of prov:hasAnchor [Accessing and Querying Provenance]

http://www.w3.org/2011/prov/track/issues/172

Raised by: Timothy Lebo
On product: Accessing and Querying Provenance

1) 
The phrase 
"for the purpose of provenance information"
in the sentence below does not seem meaningful. Is the objective to "highlight" a few Entity's URIs within the RDF content so that consumers are guided when initially exploring of the entire RDF graph found?

---
3.3 Resource presented as RDF

"Another new RDF property, prov:hasAnchor, is defined to allow the RDF content to specify one or more entity-URIs of the RDF document for the purpose of provenance information (similar to the use of the "anchor" link relation in HTML). "

2) 
Could the similarity to HTML anchors be elaborated?

Thanks,
Tim
