Scott, This approach presents a problem for us. There are cases where we want to be able to apply inferencing rules to a single resource, but we need some of the context around the resource in order to do that inferencing accurately.
For example, assume there is an inferencing rule that constructs a last name for a Person resource based on that Person's parent's last name. You don't want to infer any new triples for the parent Person, but you do need the triples surrounding the parent to be included in the graph being passed in to the ApplyTopSPIN module when doing inferencing for the child. In cases like this, it would be immensely helpful to have something like a selectQuery on the ApplyTopSPIN module. If you can think of another way to accomplish this, please let me know.
