Juan - This raises the question in my mind: is it a requirement for the
Direct Mapping to capture all of the FK relationships? My assumption was
that we wanted the Direct Mapping to capture all of them and would be
considered a failure if it dropped some of them (would there be a
deterministic way to identify which one to drop?). But from your question it
seems that it is OK for a FK to be dropped and it is just a question of how
common the scenario is. In that case I would say it is not very common.

Regarding ISSUE-65, it seems useful to me that the presence of a FK is
purely additive in terms of the triples produced. So I agree with Souri's
points and recommendation.
