Do your non-technical users necessarily need to work in RDF/XML? You could 
e.g. provide a purpose specific XML format with an unambiguous mapping to 
RDF, reification and all. Personally I find that RDF/XML obscures the form of 
the data to such an extent that it's a just a menace before you introduce 
reification anyway.

I haven't yet had a chance to look at it, but I think I saw some discussion of 
something which sounded like macro expansion in a TriX paper, which I guess 
might help with this sort of thing.
