Re: reopen ISSUE-97 and reclose next week - should interpretations be relative to a vocabulary

SPARQL has the notion of a scoping graph, which controls which names are
available, so I don't think that this is a counter-example.

It may be that scoping graphs are related to the notion of interpretations
being relative to vocabularies, but the two are not equivalent, as far as I
can see.
