/**
 * An <code>RDFHandler</code> which wraps another handler and ignores calls
 * to <code>startRDF</code> and <code>endRDF</code>,
 * allowing the base handler to be used multiple times.
 * For example, there may be several distinct operations which push RDF statements
 * into a wrapped RDFWriter before the document is terminated.
 * To actually call the base handler's <code>startRDF</code> and <code>endRDF</code> methods,
 * use <code>reallyStartRDF</code> and <code>reallyEndRDF</code>, respectively.
