So just to be clear, this is because of something about the way you've
designed the code that means that output tokens lose association to
metadata content during processing?
Effectively, then, you need to dump a separate representation of the
bib item. This would facilitate RDFa, but also any other format
really.
But it does have the cost of requiring duplication of content.
Do I have that all right?

And if anyone has BIBO/RDFa specific questions, there's google group.
