What do you mean by 'real-world RDF usage' in this context? dc:title doesn't have an associated type, as far as I'm aware, so it means that there is nothing to say the following triple is incorrect from the Dublin Core point of view: <http://example.com/doc> dc:title "RDF or Bust"^^rdf:XMLLiteral . And given the Einstein example I've been using, it would actually need to support this syntax anyway. In other words, just because most uses of dc:title are using plain literals (we surmise) does not tell us anything about how we should use dc:title in RDFa.
