Suggestion:

New datatype owl:plainLiteral (should really be rdfs:plainLiteral but we
can't do that) to be RDF plain literals.

New datatype facet (allowable only for owl:plainLiteral), lang, which is
a pattern matching against the lang bit of a plain literal, just as
pattern matches against string values.  Plain literals without language
tags would not match any lang pattern.
