Isn't that KIND?

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-vcarddav-vcardrev-15#section-6.1.4

###

6.1.4. KIND

   Purpose:  To specify the kind of object the vCard represents.

   Value type:  A single text value.

   Cardinality:  *1

   Special notes:  The value may be one of: "individual" for a single
      person, "group" for a group, "org" for an organization, "location"
      for a named geographical place, an x-name or an iana-token.  If
      this property is absent, "individual" MUST be assumed as default.

      Additional values may be registered from IANA (see
      Section 10.3.4).  A new value's specification document MUST
      specify which properties make sense for that new kind of vCard,
      and which do not.

   ABNF:

     KIND-param = "VALUE=text" / any-param
     KIND-value = "individual" / "group" / "org" / "location"
                / iana-token / x-name

Relationships between vCards, or relationships between individuals? That
is, do you want the individual who is a treasurer for an organization to
be able to (1) place a pointer in her vCard to the vCard for her
organization (with some kind of unique identifier for each vCard), or
(2) place a notation in her vCard that she is a treasurer for her
organization? Whichever it is, I think this sounds like an extension,
not part of the core.
