     Suggested Alternative Approaches:

        Consider defining literals to denote *sets* of values.
        http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-comments/2002JulSep/0033.html

        Have two different kinds of equality
        http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-comments/2002JulSep/0023.html

        Require the syntax to be precise about the value that is intended
