Not completely true. It also defines for example the BE rendering in
forms and lists. It has (had) rudimentary support

Anyway I agree that the TCA is not the very best place to add meta data.
OTOH I can see that you want to push ExtBase, but why deny classic TYPO3
extensions the powers of RDFa etc? Actually FLOW3/ExtBase will not do
much with the semantics then to output a few tags.
