Yeah. Thanks Katie for investigating. This is much less of a pressing
issue than I initially thought.
On big problem are IDs. What to do if the item's
ID is taken? Also, all the
properties used by the item are going to have wrong IDs...
Yes. In the item in question you could also see statements with
completely missing properties but existing values (presumably because
the property didn't exist) and statements where the datatype of
property and value didn't match (presumably those where the property
ID exists but is taken by a completely different property).
This is all very messy and I think we should declare this wontfix
until someone comes up with an actual real-world case where it's
needed.
