When reading from an RDF store, Turtle view will display lists explicitly
typed as rdf:List natively (as sequences of elements, in parentheses), but
will display untyped lists (e.g. the rdf:rest of a typed list) as URIs or
blank nodes. Lists should be displayed as sequences regardless of whether
they are explicitly typed.
@define foo: "one" "two" .
@define bar: :foo rdf:rest >> .
:foo >> .
:bar >> .
