So something like this would be a suitable proposal:

Nope. See <http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#attr-data>:
"Custom data attributes are intended to store custom data private to
the page or application, for which there are no more appropriate
attributes or elements.
These attributes are not intended for use by software that is
independent of the site that uses the attributes."
but this is private to the page, data-pet="http://example.com/animal#"
...is it not?
as for not intended for use by software that is independent of the site,
why does that matter when the web page itself is the application? surely
there is nothing wrong with that?
BR, Julian
Best wishes
