Yep, that beast would be a problem - we would need to find another syntactic
contrivance to escape URI containing embedded SemEnglish punctuation. The
SemEnglish [1] punctuation set is:
; , [ ] ( ) .
None of those could be inside a proper SemEnglish URI. Of course we could do it
the easy way and just define a property arc called "uri" that takes a literal as
the object which is interpreted as a URI.
[ uri "http://[1080::8:800:200C:417A]/foo"] relatesTo IPv6.
