Well - P921 is described as "primary topic of a work", and is an instance of WD 
property for items about works. Two possible issues:

- "domain" is a much clearer restriction than "main subject/primary topic" - 
which implies that there may be other secondary subjects. To identifiers, 
normally the more formal restriction applies.

- defining an identifier as a work seems a bit stretched - yet, no domain is 
given here :-)

So perhaps a new property is needed?

Cheers, Joachim
