That sounds way too ambitious! We just talking about a basic framework in terms of events, properties and actions, along with the flexibility to express richer semantics via RDF using say JSON-LD. By declaratively expressing the relationships between things, we can support discovery by following links, richer search, dependency management (perhaps akin to Linux package management), and simpler expression of behaviour, which points to opportunities for end user service creation.
