Please don't forget that some final (or almost final) standards already make
use of RDF lists as semantic entities. I know at least of SKOS ("Concept
Collections"; see Chap. 9 of [1]) and RIF (Sec. 3.2.1.2 of [2]). And if it
is true that the SPARQL 1.1 folks also start thinking about supporting
general usage of RDF lists...
