Done, citing alignment with Microdata, simplicity and XHTML2 as 
justification: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10970 (I 
now realize that I should have filed the bug against HTML+RDFa at the 
same time that as ISSUE-45 was raised, however, I expected the the 
things to follow suit.)

In the debate, Shane and I specifically made clear that ISSUE-45 was 
limited to XHTML+RDFa - RDFa core was another subject. Hence, this 
amounts to answer another question. That the participants in the telcon 
meeting talked past each others, also seems like a possibility to me 
now. So perhaps be you could look at the issue again - at least for the 
purpose of clarifying whether the issue of bringing @cite and @longdesc 
support into XHTML+RDFa, without doing the same in RDFa core, was 
considered when you decided to propose to close the issue?
