Bryan,
Does this get at what you're suggesting?
The query language must include the capability to restrict matches
on the queried graph by providing two or more RDF triple patterns,
with at least one shared variable, to be satisfied in one query.
Andy: does this seem an improvement to you?
(FWIW, I'm trying to find a short term to mean the "dataset that the
query is executed against". I tried "query graph" in earlier drafts,
but that's ambiguous. Someone said "queried graph" during the telcon
yesterday, which I think is an improvement. We will evolve some
specific language in this WG and in our documents, so comments on
"queried graph" are welcome, but probably best directed to me (?).)
