No - here's a complete example

WITH <iri> INSERT {<a>  <b>  <c>  GRAPH<g1>  { x y z } } WHERE {}

The problem is the word "section".  I can see a reading where "section"
is the whole of "INSERT {}" or WHERE{} -- the look more like "sections
of a request" than individual GRAPH parts.

(it's related to my earlier comment on modify_template)
