Reflecting on Eric's comment re. my desire for a dialect of SPARQL that's safe to be deployed inside DMZs and the like, I think he's probably right in that it's necessary to explicitly defang FROM as well. So, I would like to propose a subset of SPARQL/Query that is mandated not to do any network requests in direct response to user input. I don't care if that bans the FROM keyword, or just redefines it to act as a restriction on the (internal) dataset being queried, as I believe some SPARQL systems do now. SPARQL/Immutable is not a serious suggestion for a name, but SPARQL/ Safe or similar seems like it's asking for trouble. SPARQL/Local maybe?
