clarifying containment vs membership

As I read the spec, it seems to me that normally a container contains 
exactly the same resources it has as members.

The one circumstance I can see where this would not be true is when 
ldp:insertedContentRelation is used.

I think this is reasonable, but I'm not at all sure I'm reading things 
right.  Is there some other circumstance where it's possible to have a 
resource that is a member but is not contained, or is contained but is 
not a member?

(I guess the current spec doesn't rule out the server making these sets 
different for its own reasons, but I think the clients can't make it 
happen, so I'm not too worried about it.   It would probably be best if 
servers were forbidden from doing it, too.)

BTW, I have an alternative proposal for ldp:insertedContentRelation 
(which I think has some problems), but I want to make sure I understand 
the context before I get into that.
