Exactly!   Whatever a  *logical* RDF graph is, it is certainly is a 
document or a cluster of documents - what it is *not* is the whole blody 
semantic web.  Yet we seem not to have any convention for RDF authors to 
state that simple fact about their RDF documents and clusters of 
documents.  But there are many ways that this can be implemented without 
breaking into any new specifications.  Well we might need to define some 
new properties, but nothing really major or tramatic.
