That's too bad. It seems like a special case of the <link> method, and it'd be really easy to implement. Considering that Mozilla and Firefox support data: URLs internally (see http://www.mozilla.org/quality/networking/docs/aboutdata.html), it might already work! I'm going to do some testing and see.
Well, MozCC will recognize the contents of a data: URL as RDF (and display the icons), if you navigate to the URL. But it doesn't seem to recognize data: URLs in <link> elements, which is quite a shame.
You can see an example with an <a> anchor here:

I've tried it with a <link> element in the <head>, but strangely enough the MozCC detection of the RDF doesn't work if you've got the <link> in there.
