what about:

_:x owl:dtvalue "<a>010</a><b>aaa</b>"^^rdfs:XMLLiteral .
_:y owl:dtvalue "<a>00010</a><b>aaa</b>"^^rdfs:XMLLiteral

_:x rdf:type ex:xType .
_:y rdf:type ex:xType .

=>

_:x owl:sameIndividualAs _:y .

It seems to me that there must be some way to allow that type of entailment
(I might not have the details correct but hopefully you understand where I
am trying to go). Perhaps not in which case this issue just may be too
difficult for this WG to tackle.
