A small update. I've found that I can create an ontology that preloads (loads the content directly not as an import) the <urn:x-evn-user-data> and in fact gives me direct editing ability to perform CRUD on various aspects of data in the <urn:x-evn-user-data> tch graph e.g. user names and saved sparql queries.
So this in principle allows one to delete or update a user account. I found this because I have built an administration ontology for EDG sparql queries and saved searches. The question is...... is this dicing with death and poking at things that may have unintended consequences? In the case of saved searches, these appear to work fine and upon adding them show in all stated graphs. However, as per another previous email I've posted about layouts, layouts require some system registration of some kind. Will editing user triples have similar system registration issues ? I look forward to your advice.
