I hope that's not the case. If 302 implies owl:sameAs then I can't make 
separate statements about two different URLs representing two formats of 
the same resource (I know I'm messing up the terminology here) accessed 
via content negotiation.

<http://thefigtrees.net/id> a foaf:PerosnalProfileDocument .

302's based on Accept: headers to either

http://thefigtrees.net/id.n3
http://thefigtrees.net/id.rdf

What if I wanted to include an ex:mimeType triple about the latter ones?

<http://thefigtrees.net/id.rdf> a foaf:PerosnalProfileDocument ; 
ex:mimeType "application/rdf+xml" .

Or are you suggesting that this is some strange one-way equivalence? (If 
X -- 302 --> Y and X p q then Y p q?)
