I recently stumbled over Pat's ISWC 2009 keynote proposing "surfaces" that 
would give RDF the full power of FOL    (03)

 http://videolectures.net/iswc09_hayes_blogic/    (04)

and I wonder if the RDF WG is actually going a bit in that direction. For 
example, would it be feasible to realize "surfaces" with a simple semantic
extension to the "RDF Spaces and Datasets" draft    (05)

 http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/rdf/raw-file/default/rdf-spaces/index.html    (06)

like this:    (07)

 I(g rdf:type rdf:truespace) = true iff
  for every T: CT(I(g),T) -> I(T) = true    (08)

 I(g rdf:type rdf:falsespace) = true iff
  exists T: CT(I(g),T) and I(T) = false    (09)
