consider supporting data islands?

[melvincarvalho]

Mainly a question for @timbl but would you consider supporting data islands (aka data blocks)?

I recall TimBL suggesting at Social WG F2F in Paris to instead of HTML+RDFa use script tags to embed RDF in HTML. I really doubt that many people will actually edit RDFa.

@elf-pavlik wrote this comment and I'm wondering if it's still the case

There was also a patch in rabel to use data islands

Background info on data islands can be found here, here and here

@danbri has recently suggested that many millions of web sites are now publishing RDF using data islands.

@kidehen has also done some really impressive demos data islands

Additionally if you think about it. When tabulator does conneg on a .ttl resource, for example, it brings back html with a data browser. Wouldnt it be better if that .html actually had a data island in it?

Mainly checking to see if that quote about using data islands over RDFa is a fair representation. That being the case could we start to add data islands to the rdflib.js wish list and tooling?
