Well I was actually meaning that we *could*
have an error1.n3 file in the testcase suite
and that that file *could* contain no triples.
The broader issue here is when you have a
"nesting" (to use Pat's new term) supposed
to contain triples and there is a
'syntactic problem' then WHAT is going to be
in e.g. an engine's memory?
Craching is definitely out of question and
exception reporting/logging is obvious, but
what is the exception handling supposed to be.
I hope to have made clear that 'no container'
is not the same as an 'empty container'.
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-rdfcore-wg/2001Jun/att-0000/25-error1.rdf
is a testcase to start with.
(and sorry to have been so implicit (again))

I have no problem to live with that.
