This is great news! Thanks for sharing. Just a quick question (below)

What exactly do you mean by this?

I played a bit with the validator but wasn't able to trigger a validation
error unless I created invalid *JSON* (a missing comma for example). It
would be great if you could tweak the output a bit so that it becomes clear
what kind of data you were able to extract. Perhaps by linking the tokens
directly to their documentation on schema.org or at least showing the URLs
as tooltips (such as in my Hydra Console, http://bit.ly/1cO6pmI click on
"Load")!?


Cheers,
Markus
