Today I  discovered a new entity type that must have been introduced recently. However, I'm a bit confused and could use some explaination on this one.

"France ponders limits on executive pay: report          

LONDON (MarketWatch) -- The French government has threatened to impose new limits on compensation for top executives at poorly performing companies, the Financial Times reported Friday. French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde has called on employers to ensure that pay for top managers reflects performance, the report said. The French government will use its turn as president of the European Union, which begins in July, to push for new EU-wide rules on executive pay, the newspaper said. The French government has already placed limits on "golden parachutes," requiring companies to tie severance packages to performance criteria.

You'll notice a CompanyCustomer reference in the result.  RDF on CompanyCustomer fact is as follows:

<rdf:Description rdf:about="http://d.opencalais.com/genericHasher-1/8c3cdd10-3ede-388d-93f0-ef7e1592b4ce"><rdf:type rdf:resource="http://s.opencalais.com/1/type/em/r/CompanyCustomer"/><!--the Financial Times--><c:company_provider rdf:resource="http://d.opencalais.com/comphash-1/02500657-84e5-3e9c-8f06-16bd8c347091"/><!--French government--><c:company_customer rdf:resource="http://d.opencalais.com/comphash-1/fa0fb875-02d4-325c-afa7-1393f59b4570"/></rdf:Description>

 All fine. But heres what puzzles me. Theres also a new entity of type "http://s.opencalais.com/1/type/em/e/CompanyCustomer" in the document.

<rdf:Description rdf:about="http://d.opencalais.com/comphash-1/fa0fb875-02d4-325c-afa7-1393f59b4570"><rdf:type rdf:resource="http://s.opencalais.com/1/type/em/e/CompanyCustomer"/><c:name>French government</c:name></rdf:Description> 

Are you going to keep this kind of entity in the future? Or is this just some kind of bug?
