> Currently, {{model.read(url)}} will choose RDF/XML too readily.
> The decision should be: content-type (if not text/plain), guess from URl file extension, and only as a last resort RDF/XML (best for compatibility).  Other operations already exist for the app to name the syntax directly.
> The presenting problem is a file like http://host/data.ttl just dumped on a server - it probably get served as text/plain.  RDFDataMgr.read(url) will work.  This JIRA is extending that to model.read(url) where there is always a default syntax.  Normally, if the syntax is given, it is to override the implicit one but in this case we want it to be a "soft default", only used if there is no other sensible choice.
