Re: WebIDs and Content-Location

1) The base address used for parsing an RDF document should be the request URI,
not the Content-Location: value.   Otherwise randomly clients who can accept
n3 and rdf/xml will get <hada.rdf#me> and <hada.n3#me> which is clearly a bad idea.
(Imagining that there is a hada.n3 option).

Is there is a 302 Moved  redirect, then that new Location:  URI should be used
as the URI for the document and the base URI for parsing it.  (But NOT for 301).

2) You say that rapper is string outputting things as relative URIs as  but i would
support that, as often the absolute URI of a bit of RDF system is actually 
been mapped through proxying, or from looking at the files on a server in file:// space, 
and life is much easier if things default to 

I also like it that, anyone can do
        $ echo '<#a> <#p> 123 .' | cwm --quiet
and get
        @prefix : <#> .
        :a     :p 123 .

without being cluttered with  lots of references to the working directory.
