| 1 - How should you ask for some relevant part of a topic map (so as
| to avoid getting the whole thing when it is not needed)?

Two mechanisms have been discussed so far: give an identifier for the
topic you want, or run a query.
 
| 2 - What is a "relevant" part of a topic map, anyway?  How do you
| know where to stop?

One proposal for that is

This is actually implemented in the OKS.
 
| This is actually easier to do in topic maps than in RDF because we
| don't have to do extra work to find and chase down all the anonymous
| nodes.

Yep.
