For some use cases, the granularity of oa:Annotation is somewhat limiting. There appears to be value in being able to work with lists, clusters or sets of annotations. The use of LDP Direct Containers seems to suggest a way to efficiently manage and retrieve annotations in a list or set. Could the protocol go further in this direction and provide an equally efficient way to Create annotation lists or sets, e.g., a way to post in a single graph, a single LDP-RS that includes multiple annotations. This would raise the bar a bit for the server -- e.g., might require implicitly the creation and population of a Direct Container for all the included annotations, more could always be added by subsequently posting to the Direct Container -- but being able to post multiple annotations in a single graph could be seen as making life easier for the client and would support a more transactional interaction, e.g., these 3 related annotations all need to be created together or not all. Would this approach require adding an AnnotationList class to the data model? -- GitHub Notif of comment by tcole3 See https://github.com/w3c/web-annotation/issues/37#issuecomment-121470598
