Peter,

Wondering if focusing on how JSON-LD is unlike Turtle with -- regards to 
RDF -- could lead to some very specific tweaks to the JSON-LD spec. I 
make this comment because when we implemented JSON-LD (years ago) and 
added it to DBpedia (and anything else that's Virtuoso driven) it was 
done in the spirit of being just another notation for creating RDF model 
based document content.
