XML Schema component designators usable in OWL?

I see Component Designators just went to last call
  http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-xmlschema-ref-20081117/

among the use cases are:

"Describing XSD Components within RDF, including the use of XSD simple
types as RDF classes."

Is this working out? Is OWL able to use XSD types by
reference using component designators?

I can't confirm from a quick check of a relevant
section the OWL spec
http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-owl2-syntax-20081008/#Datatype_Maps
