Ah. So you think this text implies that all RDF authoring software must
stop users from making graphs like this? I only understood it to be
saying authors must not do it, and software must not do it on its own
accord. And since no software would do that.... no change is required.
I also believe that use of the RDF namespace (like all other w3.org
namespaces) is reserved for W3C, but I understand you might disagree
about that.
