Hmm... actually, with RDF, the first way of merging changes would be to just
take the space to be the set of triples. 

CVS wouldn't do it right, but it wouldn't be too hard to make a real merge
tool that you could trust enough to know what it would do in a given situation.

It could actually work.

The problem was that editing zzStructure distributedly is very hard
because of the local consistency rules. Merging different peoples'
changes is impossible.

Sigh... Yes. 

But this could actually be doable...
