Raised by: Richard Cyganiak
On product: Linked Data Platform core

The spec already allows adding partial descriptions of members to the container representation. If these descriptions happen to be *complete*, then it would be nice to be able to indicate that fact. So that a client doesn't have to dereference each member in order to be sure that it has complete data.

PROPOSAL: Add a property ldp:membersInlined true/false. The default (if not specified) is false. If true, it means that a complete description of all members [on the current page] are inlined with the container document [or page], and therefore clients SHOULD NOT do GET on the member URIs to retrieve additional triples.
