I think it does avoid the stacking problem.

Why would you use quads for that? You use triples. You put the triples into a named graph. The name of that graph can be used to refer to the assertion. For example, :G1 below is a name for the graph containing triples that state that {:s1 :p1 :o1.} was published yesterday at <http://example.com/>.

:G1 {
  [] a :Publishing;
     :date "2011-09-30"^^xsd:date;
     :webAddress <http://example.com/>;
     :triples :G2.
}
:G2 {
  :s1 :p1 :o1.
}

Best,
