Makes sense.. You should probably clarify that in the readme though as I
believe a lot of people would otherwise assume that they get the same
document back in a get.

The idea is that you can "query" the data and return it in a specific shape.
For example, I could write a frame like (omitting the context for
simplicity):

{
  "@type": "foaf:Person",
  "foaf:made": {
    "@type": "foaf:Document"
  }
}

That would return all Persons that made one or more documents.

While the (outdated) spec filters only based on @type my implementation
allows you to filter on any property. The more interesting part though is
that you won't get a flattened result but a result in a user-specified tree
structure.

Does that clarify it a bit?
