I have to say I'm not 100% sure yet either way.

While RDF looks very promising and is standard and has a reasonable
data model, there's a really big downfall:

versioning.

The RDF sequences are specified by the properties rdf:_1, rdf:_2, ...
which means that an insertion to a sequence will have use remove and add
a LOT of tuples.

If we can handle this, should be ok.
