It works well on 0.1.2/ OS X 10.5.

I haven't yet fully looked through your code but while testing it, the
commands worked great. I've wanted to write such nouns but never found the
time. Will Moffat wrote the original freebase command. But I'm not aware of
anyone else who wrote similar nouns.  Anyway, I think there's a lot of
potential for such nouns especially for noun-first suggestions. Imagine
selecting a name on this page and when you open a new tab (which will
eventually integrate Ubiquity [1]), Ubiquity can already figure out if it's
a song or a person. If it's a song, it can link/preview the lyrics directly,
the singer's website and video of the song. If it's person, it can link to
the WIkipedia article or just photos of the person. The possibilities are
endless and there's a lot of explore here. :)
