As Chris mentioned, we'd ultimately like to remove Trippi and provide a
more direct integration with Mulgara, but this requires some more thought.
Had there been time before the 3.0 release, I would have opted for
refactoring Trippi's Mulgara package to use Mulgara's new Connection API
to enable SPARQL as an interim measure.
