I demoed the RDFa API during the Drupal tutorial on Monday at SemTech using
Alex's Green Turtle lib [1]... I was able to grab particular elements from
the DOM matching schema:ScholarlyArticle for example:
document.getElementsByType('http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle');

and enrich them with related data from a third party service using JSON-LD.

So from that point of view the RDFa API is useful.
