After sleeping over this I think I changed my mind.

I would like to keep the section in some form. The statement it ought to make is:

“In media types that encode RDF graphs, a fragment #foo identifies whatever is denoted by <base#foo> in the encoded RDF graph. Everything said in RFC 3986 Section 3.5 still applies.”

I've re-written the section to say exactly that, albeit in a lot more words, while keeping some phrasing from the old text:
http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/rdf/raw-file/default/rdf-concepts/index.html#section-fragID

It's pretty long because it recaps some bits of RFC 3986 in order to provide context.

I guess this resolves ISSUE-37 and ISSUE-69 in a non-controversial way. I will mark both issues as pending review.

Best,
Richard
