Actually the _at_namespace feature is implemented in current versions of
Mozilla and IE, so who cares. I use this to style my FOAF file.. not
powerful enough though, as you say.
And « foaf|schoolHomepage:before{content: "School Homepage: " attr(rdf|
resource);} » is not what you want, sure :) [1]

This current direction of the Fresnel discussion feels too XMLish for
me. Your approach seems reasonable and certainly developer-friendly, but
still I wouldn't drop the style vocabulary. I don't want all the styling
knowledge in RDF. But still having special terms for some explicit
styling "knowledge"/metadata in RDF does feel reasonable.
Anyway, I don't have a solution. Just wanted to express my feelings of
an interested bystander :)
Regards,
Hannes Gassert
