I think that perhaps the most important work in this area is coming out of W3C's LDP activity:

http://www.w3.org/2012/ldp/wiki/Main_Page
http://www.w3.org/TR/ldp/

now being implemented by Marmotta, Fedora Commons, and other software.

A question that seems to be arising for this community is how workflows within it will change with the advent of these new ways of sharing work? That's surely beyond the scope of the Bibframe project, but I think that anyone who wants to engage with Bibframe will find themselves facing that question.

When using restrictive licensing on data, catalog linking will not work. This is the reason why many national libraries are providing authority files by using a CC0 waiver.

Linked Data fragments may be retrieved once per day, or once per hour - the target is the real time web, with the help of large aggregating linked data hubs, to distribute the authoritative information globally at the highest possible speed and reliability.

Assembling the entities from streams of RDF triples is almost as painful to do by eye. :)

If you cache remote linked data resources locally (and if you intend to give your patrons a reasonable experience, you will be caching) you can certainly make emendations into or out of the cache, processing data in whatever ways you see fit.

If an IRI  denoting some fictional thing lacks the  appropriate characterization, you can make the appropriate assertion yourself; for example adding an assertion that the entity is a member of the class of FictionalThings.  This can be published for others to use.

The RDA relator terms (MARC $e), for example, would I assume not be in the authority data, but rather stored locally for display with the authority form.  Perhaps the same could be done for missing qualifiers (MARC $c)?
