But I'd like to.

I don't think RDFa is the technology that's stopping you here. The
existing state of the web and HTML is already preventing it.

WRT profile; I see how this can work for a single profile URI, but it
does not scale, so I'm not sure how this is supposed to help with mixing
relations from several profiles (namespaces) in a single document.

Far be it from me to defend the @profile approach to web-scale data :)
But, to be fair, @profile does allow for a space-separated list of values.

Yes, but how does this help in this case?

If I have

  <head profile="http://example.com/ http://example.org/";>

and

  <a rel="foobar">

...how do I find out which profile/namespace foobar belongs to? It doesn't solve the disambiguation problem.

I'll also mention that fragments of [X]HTML often appear in places like XMPP and Atom. Places where a <head> element generally don't appear.

A typical content management system like WordPress, templating languages like PHP, and even lowly Planet aggregating software often are faced with the problem of collating multiple fragments and placing them on a single page.

We are not talking about obscure tags here, we are talking about attributes that may be found on the <a> tag.
