The functional spec allows a disjoint classes axiom to contain 2 or more class descriptions. As far as I can tell, in the current RDF mapping, disjoint classes must be mapped in a pairwise fashion using disjointWith statements. In some cases, for example when following the design pattern of making primitive sibling classes mutually disjoint, this can cause the size of the RDF graph to become very large. Additionally, there is no way to preserve "modelling style" because the current mapping results in round tripping problems after serialising and parsing. To solve these problems, would it be possible to add an AllDisjoint mapping to the spec (rather like AllDifferent for individuals)? Cheers, Matthew
