The spec explains how to deal with relationships > 3 (rdf:value) but not
those < 3 (i.e. two). I'd like to suggest we introduce two new properties:

rdf:is
rdf:isNot

This saves us from having to do something klugey like:

<http://www.aaronsw.com/> bob:likesChocolate 0 .

and also allows RDF processors to know that it's part of two-valued logic
and treat it properly.
