[Feature Request] Expand RDF triples as separate nodes and edges #215

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. RDF/SPARQL based graphs currently consolidate triples within a class into a node as properties. This potentially portrays the underlying graph as a property graph instead of RDF. Some users would like to be able to expand and view the shape of a class as predicates and objects instead of as properties within a node.

Describe the solution you'd like An option to expand rdf triples as separate nodes and edges without consolidating the related triples as properties inside a node.

Additional context An expected view of the graph would be similar to the W3 rdf data visualization.

There's a scenario this might open up that could be interesting. Imagine we could add a literal value, such as "Bill" to the graph as a node. We could then expand on that literal to see all relationships to the literal "Bill".

The query to get this data could be rather expensive. But there is potential here.
