If a user wants to deviate from these (default) shapes then they should link from their data to another graph via sh:shapesGraph. This can already be handled. What you seem to suggest is a way to link from an ontology to one (or more?) *possible* or *recommended* shapes graph with a property similar to rdfs:seeAlso. While this may sometimes be useful, there is a trade-off here in how complex do we want this language to become, and how many people will still understand all these nuances. Holger
