Proposal for defining licenses

Hi All,

I'm thinking that there is a need for license as a property beyond the
current domain and range defined in http://schema.org/license.

Licenses can be held by a Person or Organization to perform a particular
action (hunting, fishing, demonstrating, busking, driving, operating a
particular piece of equipment, operating a business, providing a regulated
service, etc.).

Would this be best as a new type (maybe child of CreativeWork?) leveraging
new and existing properties such as:

   - licenseNumber: (text)
   - licenceType: (text)
   - licenseIssuedBy: (Organization/Person)
   - dateIssued: http://schema.org/dateIssued (Date - currently only
   applies to tickets)
   - expires: http://schema.org/expires (Date - currently on CreativeWork)

I'm just beginning to think on this, but have already run into several use
cases "in the wild" that could benefit from being able to explicitly state
a particular license.

Does anyone else see this need?

Thanks,
--Eric
