I don't believe there was any expectation that the RDF representation could fully express the legal code of a license. I think that means Maarten is correct.
Of course, there are tools out there that take the attribution requirement and "just happen" to generate attribution text that matches what the CC licenses require. I'd have to think about it more to decide if that's a sane behavior or if they should be checking something else before deciding to do that.
