you raised an issue which was captured in

   http://www.w3.org/2000/03/rdf-tracking/#rdfms-nested-bagIDs

as

[[[
The Model and Syntax specification does not clearly specify which reified 
statements are put in which bag when nested description elements have bagID's.
]]]

As recorded in

   http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/20020225-f2f/#d-2002-02-25-2


the RDFCore WG resolved:

[[

A bagID reifies the property attributes on the same element as the bagid, 
the type node and statements immediately arising from property elements 
that are immediate children of the element containing the bagId. In 
particular a property element whose statement is part of the bag, which has 
property attributes, those statements are not part of the bag.

Specifically:

   <rdf:Description about="a" bagID="bag1">
     <some:prop rdf:ID="st1">
       <rdf:Description about="b" bagID="bag2">
         <some:otherProp rdf:ID="st2"> A literal </someOtherProp>
       </rdf:Description>
     </some:prop>
   </rdf:Description>

generates two bags. Bag1 contains st1 only. Bag2 contains st2 only. This 
issue is closed.
