We MUST HAVE some way to attach literal values somehow.  If we do not have
resourceData, then where?  Well, we could use the data: scheme in a
resourceRef, but that would make the data a URI and it would have to be
URI-escaped.  Nasty.  The  upside is that it would make database and
application design a little simpler (modulo URI escaping).

So I think that we shoul NOT depricate resourceData.  Instead, we should
strengthen it so it can specify the type of the literal data it holds.
