If one starts to let in more generalized notions of subgraphs, one needs 
to make sure that in the euphoria of the envisioned richer data sets, 
one does not inadvertantly get more than one bargains for.  For example, 
every resource is related to every other, if OWL is in play, because 
their types are all subclasses of owl:Thing.  I don't think that anyone 
wants to end up with that in their supposedly bounded subgraphs!
