The way to do this might be to define in the spec some sort of “RDF geek compatibility context” that could be used by anyone who wants a very regular and direct representation of RDF triples in JSON-LD. For example, my SPARQL store could use that context when serializing a CONSTRUCT result to JSON-LD. I'd expect to be able to do something like this with the resulting JSON-LD: my_jsonld_data = … // load JSON-LD file subject = "http://data.example.com/people/123"; predicate = "http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name"; object = my_jsonld_data[subject][predicate][0]; alert(object.string); // "Bob" If that would be possible, then I'd consider JSON-LD as addressing the use cases that motivate RDF/JSON [1].
