I'd disagree. While indeed it is RDF's feature to store, query and exchange 
data in standardized environment, processing these data other way than 
simplie queries and reasoning is completely different story. Please note 
that implementation of only one single vocabulary, OWL 2 is an enormous task 
which keeps many peaople around the world busy. Yes, there are reasoners but 
doing a fast reasoner is very very complicated task.
The same works for other vocabularies - implementing a logic behind a given 
vocabulary may be not that easy task. I'm trying to make an implementation 
for Hydra and it keeps me occupied for quite long a time. Mixing other 
vocabularies won't make it any easier - I expect it to be opposite.

I'd be very careful with mixing stuff from other vocabularies.
