You can always type the link and provide more information:
<rdfs:seeAlso>
  <foaf:PersonalProfileDocument rdf:about="...">
    <dc:format>application/rdf+xml</dc:format>
  </foaf:PersonalProfileDocument>
</rdf:seeAlso>

or so and so on...

BTW, one thing that DOAP might find useful to adopt early on is the use of 
self-description (information about the document containing the description) 
and e.g. foaf:primaryTopic. One of the most problematic issues with FOAF 
documents in the past has been "how to figure out what/who a file is about". 
This is now resolved, but only for "new" files that provide the necessary 
information about themselves...
