quick hack... s/rdf:Description/rd:Foo/

In essence you're saying 'http://www.snee.com/temp/pbtest.html' is a
rdf:type rd:Foo.

That being said, it strikes me when Fresnel is integrated into Longwell
(which in turn would then be in Piggy-Bank) there should be some simple
vanilla abilities to display untyped nodes.

Another simple, similar example is available at
http://www.w3.org/People/EM

<link rel="meta" type="application/rdf+xml" title="Contact"
href="contact" />

digging into http://www.w3.org/People/EM/contact we see

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"

let me know if this works for you... I must admit, I really like the
idea of using Piggy-Bank to store (among other things) contact
information :)
