Re: shapes-ISSUE-192 (Are focus nodes shapes?): Should focus nodes be of type sh:Shape? if not, then what?

sh:filterShape is a property, so its type is rdf:Property

Itıs range of values are instances of sh:Shape

sh:filterShape
  rdf:type rdf:Property ;
  rdfs:domain sh:Constraint ;
  rdfs:range sh:Shape ;
