The CSS working group has a very good way of dealing with experimental 
things. Examples:

-moz-box-pack
-webkit-transition
-o-table-baseline

Using data-rdfa- isn't much different. It's certainly easier to get 
right than XML Namespaces, it's compatible with XHTML, and it doesn't 
step on the namespace that the HTML WG is chartered to standardize. For 
example, I don't see a "property" attribute in HTML5.
