Bruce, you misjudge me, I asked for triples not stated types to be 
properties.

Anyway, what is important with Elias help we are about to fix the 
problem in the spec. Patrick and I are currently tweaking on the final 
wording.
Basically whenever an m:about / m:property is used in conjunction with 
m:data-value and m:data-type,
the RDF object is not the element content, but the value of the 
m:data-value attribute.
The element content becomes the RDF object of the rdfs:label from the 
m:about.

The m:data-type is referring as data type to the value of m:data-value.
