Otherwise, testing parsers for compliance is tricky. A quick note to bookmark a point: emitting the 'same' invented-URIs for un-named resource mentions is risky: if we make the generated ID purely a function of the bag-of-bytes XML document we could get situations where relative URIs are used to mention _different_ resources, but result in a parser emitting the same generated ID. I don't have time to cook up an example right here, but for eg. <foo rdf:resource="../index.html"/> in different contexts means something different, so an rdf/xml doc including that might be mentioning a different pair of resources.
