AFAICT, most people don't want to write in HTML. (Not directly anyways.)

But, even for the ones that would write in HTML, I suspect they will feel something like this is too much to do to create a quotation and citation.

Only a very small group of power-users might be willing to write that type of HTML + RDFa. Maybe.


   <div vocab="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" prefix="dc: http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">
	    <blockquote>

                Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
            </p>
