Soooo… six months later:

As you know, all our work on HyperDE (http://www.tecweb.inf.puc-rio.br/hyperde) is in Ruby. At that time, Demetrius Nunes, my student, wrote a replacement for ActiveRecord named SemanticRecord. This later inspired ActiveRDF (http://www.activerdf.org/), which we have used extensively (and extended) in Explorator (http://www.tecweb.inf.puc-rio.br/explorator). In both, we also used Sesame directly using it's Java API and RJB, which works just fine. I suspect it would also work with Jena, although we have not tried this. We are currently looking into migrating both to jRuby. A belated comment, for the record. As you know, all our work on HyperDE (http://www.tecweb.inf.puc-rio.br/hyperde) is in Ruby.

Yup; something like what ARC seems to provide for the PHP world. Might ActiveRDF be an appropriate basis for this?
