hCite nesting (citation/bibliography/collection/collections)

Aloha microformaters,

Individual citations are often collected within a document
as a
bibliography (references). Bibliographies from the
library/institutional perspective are organized in
collections (either
the references or the actual items referenced. Another
example of
collections of references would be the references across a
number of
papers, collected as a group. Question: is there a set of
semantic
containers that could identify a bibliography within a given
document,
as well as a collection of bibliographies across documents?

What's wrong with...

<ul class="bibliography"></a>

<link href="foobar"
rel="bibliography"> (from each document in the

collection)

Aloha,

Take for example CiteSeer[1], a collection of the metadata
for 767,558
documents. An example metadata page[2] has a number of
bibliographies
embedded in it[3], including:

   [A] Documents which cite the current document
   [B] Documents which share citations with the current
document
   [C] Documents which are similar based on textual content
   [D] Other documents which are being cited by those citing
this
current document (A)
   [E] Citations from the current document, and
   [F] Documents from the same site as the current document

Note that these metadata pages also have ratings (1-5
stars),
summaries, bibTeX entries, and citation statistics.

On the ACM website[4], a given article[5] has a link to
'find similar
articles'[6], which is in essence an annotated
bibliography.

It seems that rel (rev being deprecated[7]), with a bit of
semantics,
could distinguish the various kinds and instances of
citation in a
given document. There seem to be the following:

   [i] works cited
   [ii] works citing
   [iii] works sharing citation
   [iv] works otherwise akin (non-reference-based)

In the case of [D] above, we have a nested relationship of
[ii]:[i],
namely the works cited from those works citing this one.
