It is for reverse relations, just as Freebase does. However...the proposal https://www.w3.org/wiki/WebSchemas/InverseProperties is not worded correctly in some areas... .it should use "has a", instead of "is a" or "is the". Someone needs to go through the proposal in more depth and make necessary corrections that assert the appropriate reverse relationships so that they make sense. Example: The line <link itemprop-reverse="creator" href="http://www.freebase.com/m/0yq9mqd"> expresses that http://www.freebase.com/m/0yq9mqd is the schema:creator of the person "William Shakespeare". "Romeo and Juliet" did not create William Shakespeare. His Mum and Dad did.
