Hi Leight,


thanks for you reply.

You are absolutetly right and Im allready aware about the 
FunctionalInverseProperties.

But, since I think the same-concept-dublication problem is a 
fountamental problem, there should also be an appropriate functionality 
even in RDFS(S) and not only in owl (full).
Thats why I used rdf in the example code.

cheers,
Andreas
