While it is a good idea to figure out if CSVW (or any other standard) meets your requirements regarding data modeling, you also have to check the reality of tools implementing a standard. Our csvw package is not the reference implementation of the CSVW standard (that's why I pointed you to the limitations of CSVW support in this package). So even if you identify a feature of CSVW which you'd need but isn't supported by our package, this doesn't automatically result in an issue for us.

If you think the current functionality of our csvw package is a good starting point for you, we'd encourage you to become more familiar with the codebase of the package, to eventually be in a position to contribute additional functionality you may find lacking.
