Heh, I read and commented on the bug report before seeing this email

While it *is* inadvertent, it might also be desirable.  We have  
already had questions about re-accessing blank nodes across multiple  
insertions.  Maybe this is the way to do it?  :-)

I'm inclined to fix it, but I'm interested in opinions here.
