and I support this.
NT-NCName is a term in the Namespaces in XML Recommendation (1999)
but make sense to use since it is what W3C XML Schema data types uses
for (XML) ID aka xsd:ID
3.3.8 ID
[[ID represents the ID attribute type from [XML 1.0 (Second
Edition)]. The value space of ID is the set of all strings that
match the NCName production in [Namespaces in XML]. The lexical
space of ID is the set of all strings that match the NCName
production in [Namespaces in XML]. The base type of ID is NCName.
]] -- http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlschema-2-20010502/#ID
so if we want to ever write an W3C XML Schema for RDF/XML, it would
be good if these were compatible.
The 'name' term in N-Triples
http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-testcases/#name
was very early on related to this issue but is now defined entirely
in that document and we don't need to change it.
