Re: ISSUE-137: Re: rdf language tag contraints

I can think of these use cases:

1. literal must have a language tag - any language tag
2. literal must have a specific language tag
3. literal must have one of a list of language tags

The more difficult one is:

4. there must be n properties, each with one of a list of language tags, 
no repeats, e.g. you must have 3 SKOS preflables, one each @en @sp @fr

There may be others, that's what's off the top of my head.
