Thank you @jmvezic for your request. The Guidelines for inst. and thematic repositories supports already affiliation and the affiliationIdentifier attribute as you can see in the example here
<datacite:affiliation affiliationIdentifier="https://ror.org/01ab23cd4">Institute of Science and Technology</datacite:affiliation>
The nameType attribute of creatorName element could also be 'Organizational'.
And example could be
<datacite:creators>
<datacite:creator>
<datacite:creatorName nameType="Organizational">Bielefeld University Library</datacite:creatorName>
<datacite:affiliation affiliationIdentifier="https://ror.org/02hpadn98">Bielefeld University</datacite:affiliation>
</datacite:creator>
</datacite:creators>
I don't think the subproperty nameIdentifier can be specified because ROR doesn't currently support a multi-level hierarchy.
Since 4.1 started introducing ROR, it would be wise to add it to the Creator subproperties, especially affiliation, since that's the main goal of ROR:
In addition to that, it can also be added to creatorName, since the Creator property allows for nameType to be "organizational".
