At the moment I don't observe a lot of people calling for this, and I'm not sure there is a good standard way to do it; as you point out it's tricky, and I'm highly unconvinced that RDF brute-force concatenation generalizes across applications. Suppose we just say "in RDF they use qnames to stand in for URIs the same way that relative URI references are used, and they provide rules and that's OK" but don't try to generalize? At the last TAG F2F we heard that Schema is working on this for the case of user-defined types identified by qname, it'll be interesting to see what they come up with. -Tim
