It's already done...mostly. 😉

Also, checkout @tilgovi's recent plnkr:

As you highlight stuff it shows the various representations of the selection (one of which is a Web Annotation). If you (in a very recent Firefox at least) copy the text, click someplace else in the doc (to remove the select), and then "Ctrl + V"/paste it will reanchor the selection using the Web Annotation it stored in the clipboard.

Next up, imagine editors being smart enough to accept a Web Annotation paste and give you options for how you want to present the citation in your markup (with them keeping the Web Annotation data in RDFa). Pretty sure this is the sort of thing @csarven day dreams about also. 😸
