That's what we do. Really similar to what ter Horst proposed, but ter
Horst takes the largest n such that rdf_:n occurs in the input and
then allows all non-container membership axiomatic triples plus
container membership axiomatic triples with rdf:_m and m<n and we just
allow all  non-container membership axiomatic triples plus container
membership axiomatic triples with rdf:_n such that rdf:_n occurs in
the input.
