I think it would be great to have that internal information of articles, books, etc. available as semantic data too, and not only the metadata. You could generate table of contents, reference a paragraph of an article or a figure directly by its URI, etc.. > > I'd be glad to hear your thoughts because I'm thinking of building such a vocabulary if it doesn't exist already.

Excuse lack of url, i'm on iphone but it should be easy to find. Re foaf, open q is being clearer about patterns for describing how small instances of foaf:Document can fit together to make bigger ones. This should work easily across files, so perhaps similarly for file substructure.
