I'm not really picking on you :) but I've seen this mistake a few
times and best to remind people _:1 _:2 and _:3 are not bNode
identifiers as defined by N-Triples:

  nodeID  ::=  '_:' name
  name  ::=  [A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9]*

  -- http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-testcases/#ntrip_grammar


I think it should stay that way so there is no confusion with rdf:_1
which I guess could be abbreviated to :_1 in N3 (not N-Triples) with
default namespace set to RDF like this:

--------------------------------------------------------------
@prefix : <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#> .

<http://example.org> :type :Seq .
<http://example.org> :_1   <http://example.org/thing> .
--------------------------------------------------------------

wouldn't a _:1 in that graph be confusing?
