I've added a JIRA ticket for this at: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MARMOTTA-630
In terms of interoperability - the standardisation of such APIs is a design-time consideration: do we allow users to map arbitrary URI templates to queries - or do we impose some well-known semantics? LinkedDataAPI has some standardised parameters: _view, _format and _language being the most relevant ones here. I'm in favour of a template-driven option, with default behaviour to support the LDA spec (or something that provides the same functionality and is managed by W3C or IETF etc). It might be possible to pre-define templates that match existing options (LDA, graphity, pubby) and give the user a choice. this would allow default behaviour to converge on standardised API design, but allow flexibility in an uncertain world.
