@container value enumeration

Dear all,

The @container property has an enumerated set of possible values (@list,
@set, @language, @index, null) where, in particular, @list gets turned into
an rdf:List.

There are several other ontologies that express an ordering in RDF, such as
the Ordered List Ontology (
http://smiy.sourceforge.net/olo/spec/orderedlistontology.html ) or Resource
List ( http://vocab.org/resourcelist/schema )

It was felt that it would be nice to be able to specify different ways to
parse/serialize the different list structures into JSON-LD.  This would
allow interoperability at the JSON level, without mandating a particular
ordered list construction in the RDF graph.

Our first thought was to put some identifier as the value of @container,
and have a specialized parser/serializer that recognized other @containers
and would generate the right syntax, other than rdf:List (or JSON list from
the triples).  However as the enumerated @container ship has sailed, is
there an alternative?   Could we, perhaps, use @container:@list, and the
some other field to give the appropriate syntax to use for the list?

Many thanks for your consideration :)

Rob
