ISSUE-75 (tableName-sugar): Reconsider rr:tableName syntactic sugar [R2RML]

http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/rdb2rdf/track/issues/75

Raised by: Richard Cyganiak
On product: R2RML

This is part of David's LC feedback, and it was also debated at the 2nd F2F.

Several questions were raised regarding the syntactic sugar that allows rr:tableName, rr:sqlQuery and rr:sqlVersion to be used not just on a logical table resource but also directly on a triples map.

1. Should we have this feature at all?
2. Should it use different property names (e.g., rr:logicalTableName and rr:logicalTable=>rr:name)?
3. Should it apply just to rr:tableName, or also to rr:sqlQuery and rr:sqlVersion?
4. The handling of this sugar in the B.2 table is non-obvious
