Yep! It's that obvious :-)

What would be nice would be a little comment in the Turtle spec, if  
it gets approved,
making the point that when the "=" follows the "[" as above there is  
no need for an interpreter
to create a blank node: they should just go an name the node with the  
URL following it.
