INSERT resource CBDs into separate graphs

Hey all,

when mapping tabular data to RDF, we end up with multiple resource
descriptions in one graph. The descriptions are rooted in document
resources and can have optional nested bnode paths attached:

<#resource1> a foaf:Document ;
  foaf:name "Resource 1" ;
  foaf:maker [ a foaf:Person ; foaf:familyName "FamilyName 1" ] .

<#resource2> a foaf:Document ;
  foaf:name "Resource 2" . # no bnodes attached to this one

<#resource3> a foaf:Document ;
  foaf:name "Resource 3" ;
  foaf:maker [ a foaf:Person ; foaf:familyName "FamilyName 3" ] .


As the next thing, we want to store each description in a separate
named graph. Currently we do something like:

DELETE
{
  ?doc ?docP ?docO .
  ?docO ?thingP ?thingO .
}
INSERT
{
    GRAPH ?graph {
        ?doc ?docP ?docO .
        ?docO ?thingP ?thingO .
    }
}
WHERE
{
    {
        SELECT ?doc ?graph
        {
          ?doc a foaf:Document
            BIND (UUID() AS ?graph)
        }
    }
    ?doc ?docP ?docO .
    OPTIONAL {
        ?docO ?thingP ?thingO .
    }
}

This works in simple cases, but breaks down as soon as the bounded
description is "deeper" than the pattern in OPTIONAL.

I was wondering if this can be solved in a general way, for
description with arbitrarily nested blank nodes? And maybe even
possible to get rid of the pattern checking resource type?

Something like INSERT { GRAPH ?graph { DESCRIBE ?doc } } :)
