There are use cases such as “keep inferred triples separate from asserted triples in an RDF store” that really seem to require graph naming. The use cases seem to fall into two groups: 1. RDF datasets as a cache/archive of collections of graphs obtained from other sources 2. RDF datasets as a way of managing subsets of a larger RDF graph Maybe it is true that everything in the first group can be handled by referring to documents or serializations. But I don't think it's possible for the second group. Best, Richard
