The disadvantage is getting too close to RDF. Right now developers can get away with treating CC metadata as XML, which is good for adoption.

<dc:creator>
<cc:Agent>
<dc:title>foo</dc:title>
</cc:Agent>
</dc:creator>

vs.

<dc:creator>
<foaf:Agent>
<foaf:name>foo</foaf:name>
</foaf:Agent>
</dc:creator>

Still could, no?

Aside: I'm not sure why foaf:name exists when dc:title would seem to suit the purpose.
