If the author wants to show only a sample of a resource and not the full resource, I think she does it on purpose. It is not clear why it is vital for the viewer to have an _obvious_ way to view the whole resource instead; if it were the case, the author would provide for this. IMHO, Chris
It depends critically on what you think the semantics of the fragment are. In HTML (the best analogy I can think of), the web page is not trimmed or edited in any way -- you are merely directed to one section of it.
I am also aware that browsers that don't implement fragments will also show the whole resource; so authors can't rely on he trimming.
Given both of these, I tend towards using # as a focus of attention; if trimming is desired, the server should probably do it (maybe using ?).
