Sorry to be dim here, but does "the triples as specified in the dataset"
indicate a truth predicate of some sort (in which case I would have
expected "indicated" instead of "specified"). Or maybe I'm misinterpreting
a signal that another graph (probably the default graph) includes all of
the triples in the identified graph.
