I cleaned this up can you take a second look?
I used your feedback from a reply you made to issue-134

This is indeed stricter than before and might disallow some valid cases but
I think it is necessary
There are cases where a constraint applies on a property constraint and not
on a node constraint or the other way around (e.g. sh:closed, sh:lessThan)
Also, when we mix inverse property constraints with node constraints we
might end up with the issues you had with PCs / IPCs
Finally, there is also the defaultValueType where we will not have a
deterministic way to define the default type for a constraint
For all these reasons we decided it was better to be a little stricter and
avoid future problems
