I just send an Email to the wikidata-tech mailing list on this topic of using data value types and property data types, and on using the string value or IRI value for the URL datatype.
I would very much appreciate input there. The latter decision has to happen rather quickly (if we are not to move the URL datatype once more), the former decision has a bit more time but should be made soonish. Thank you for your input so far, and sorry for changing mailing lists, but I think wikidata-tech is more appropriate.
