Yes, we got close to adding it properly, ... but backed out
(clumsily!) at the last minute, in favour of using simple
'foaf:account' relationships between people and pages that embody an
account. It is simpler, allowing in RDFa 1.1 us to write <a
href="http://twitter.com/danbri" rel="account" > ... or similar.

ps. the same time, foaf:holdsAccount became foaf:Account, and we
started worrying less about an OnlineAccount also being a Document.
Avoiding the intermediate entity removes some verbosity at little cost
to expressivity
