Making something like pub:name a subProperty of rdfs:label is

I would suggest that Tabulator find a better way. E.g., something
Fresnelish.
Let me see.
1. The RDF working group defines RDF and RDFS, including the useful
utility properties rdfs:label, rdfs:comment, rdfs:seeAlso and
rdfs:isDefinedBy.
2. RDF people start to use these properties in conformance with the
specs.
3. While defining OWL-DL, the OWL WG introduces rather arbitrary
restriction on all these properties.
4. OWL people ask RDF people to stop subclassing these properties in
order to meet the restrictions imposed by OWL-DL.
This doesn't make any sense to me. The OWL WG blundered when they
redeclared these properties as annotation properties.
[snip]
Presumably OWL DL systems can be built to ignore the
rdfs:subClassOf fact when they do OWL-DL reasoning on the data.
+1. You broke it, you fix it.

Presumably Tabulator can be built to do something with property
annotations.
