dajobe: although what he wants to do isn't entirely clear, it seems that it requires an aggregate graph to do a query, which would mean a sparql query with multiple FROMs. Comparing that (albeit unclear to me) case to something very specific like a flickr downloader, don't seem the same class of problem.
dajobe: and I've written flickr API code, so I know that's not trivial either
