I've just updated the draft again with a few changes from over the 
weekend, nothing too major, some minor cleanup and:
  - removed Graph.apply, it was duplicate (and hard to optimize) 
functionality, removeMatches offers the same (and more) functionality in 
a more optimized and usable manner
  - added a 'graph' argument to TripleAction and TripleCallback
  - added a ProcessorCallback additional interface (now needed as 
previously it used TripleCallback), this is actually re-putting in an 
interface from an earlier draft
  - added a missing 'equals' method on the Triple interface (had meant 
to do that for months, somehow escaped my list)

still to do:
  - rename Triple.value to something different, Ivan has suggested 
'name', I'm half fond of 'term' but that's re-use, and I realised that I 
picked the method name 'valueOf' to align with Javascript and Java - so 
just need to rename Triple.value to save confusion and address Ivan's 
comment.

Best,

Nathan
