That's reasonable. I worked for a time with some technology from MSR which takes two different relational or XSD schemas and suggests mappings between them. This was based purely on analysis of the two schemas and some instance data -- it is easy to imagine this being augmented with feedback from thousands of users. You're right that schema itself is not a bad thing; although I feel that rdf:type is a stumbling block to RDF adoption right now.
