OK, but the terminology entry for "datatype" cites RDF 1.1 concepts, and
rdf:langString doesn't appear in that document. It is defined in RDF
Schema 1.1, though.[1] Does that mean it should be listed specifically
with RDFS as its reference?

***Proposal***

Modify definition of datatypes in SHACL to include rdf:langString from RDF schema. Also, is rdfs:Literal also needed?
