In this case, are you arguing that the use of rdf:Alt would have
been appropriate if the semantics of dc:identifier had been defined
as "A set of alternative unambiguous references to the resource
within a given context"?
I indeed get the feeling that the distinction is very subtle, and
the question is: does it matter in practice, or is this an argument
of theory and principle?
