I am not knowledgeable enough about these specs to provide the full
path, but I am a little bit confused, because I'm pretty sure this is a
path the W3C has traveled before.

Specifically, GRDDL allows for interpretation of RDF triples using a
namespace-based transformation:

http://www.w3.org/TR/grddl/#ns-bind

We're effectively adding a GRDDL namespace-transformation pointer from
the XHTML namespace. That transformation implements RDFa. I don't think
we're asking processors to do anything different in terms of FYN than
what GRDDL does.

But maybe I'm missing something?
