RE: exactMatch mapping property

Hi Dragan,

I thought about this a while ago - how to infer mappings in the opposite direction, given a mapping from a concept to an (AND/OR) combination of concepts.  It should be possible to define some rules that express this, but I can't think exactly what they should be right now.  It gets a little complicated because AND/OR combinations can have nested AND/OR combinations.  Definitely something to think about for the future :)

Cheers,

Al.
