I note that per ASN, an Agent is a kind of Entity, yet when declaring an Agent I see no obvious way to associate attributes (e.g. a name) with an agent.

Except, maybe:

  Agent(mm)
  Entity(mm, [foaf:name="Meritorious Meerkat"])

Maybe allow entity attributes to be attached directly to the Agent expression, thus:

  Agent(mm, [foaf:name="Meritorious Meerkat"])
