Update on NF&R

Find below an update on the recent changes of  NF&R.

1) I have added a new drafted section 3 to NF&R
"Other_Design_Choices_and_Rationale" [1].
The aim is to better document some OWL 2 important design points and
their rationale.
This text is a *preliminary* temptative draft to instantiate what I
suggested at a previous telecon to move forward. Present list of
topics and text is preliminary, mainly issued from discussions and
(drafts) reponses  to LC comments or to NF&R from several members
(namely Ivan, Bijan, me or others) and from sections moved from the
Syntax to NF&R in december, as requested by the WG. I'm aware that
some parts may possibly be better motivated. Other contributions and
better wording  are highly welcome to improve it.  Thank you.

2) I have updated the *Profiles* section [2] but I did not yet have
time to finish. My intend is to shortly include also additional
sentences along the lines suggested by Sandro about QL vs RL

3)  'hasKey' feature has been updated earlier (when we received
comments), but I'll be happy to improve it, if I'm provided with some
relevant matter to be added. Concise text is preferred.
