Is rdf:langString a datatype?  It sure looks as if it should be, but it
isn't.

The OWL WG finessed this issue a different way, that was consistent with
datatypes.  This could be done here as well (the datatype rdf:langString
takes strings of the form "xxx@ll", ...), but maybe my proposed fix for the
Semantics could be made visible in Concepts.
