Re: Open Github Issues

Consider this very realistic scenario:
1a. Linked Data agent accesses AS server
1b. it negotiates an RDF media type, and the server responds with JSON-LD
1c. the agent stores the RDF data, possibly minting new resource URIs,
and re-publishes it as Linked Data
2a. another Linked Data agent accesses the re-published data
2b. it negotiates an RDF media type, and the server responds with
Turtle (or RDF/XML etc.)

At this point, the AS data becomes "invalid" as per the specification,
even though the agents perfectly follow HTTP and RDF standards and
Linked Data principles. AS breaks content negotiation by restricting
the media type and disabling "the practice of making available
multiple representations via the same URI".
