WFS - dateTime objects are not recognized

Affected QGIS version: 3.0.0
Redmine category:web_services_clients/wfs

On QGIS 3.0.1, dateTime objects that are served via WFS are not recognized, yielding a null field value. I tested this by connecting 3.0.1 to a WFS feature service with dateTime objects (stored in Oracle, registered as a data store in GeoServer). Looking at the attribute table for the layer, all columns holding date&time objects show null.

However upon a direct db connection, date&time objects are loaded in the attribute table correctly (ISO 8601).

I marked this as regression because older versions of QGIS show this data as a string. That would probably be the fastest way to "fix" it, though it would create extra encumbrance if one desired to do temporal math.

Can you point to a WFS server and layer that exhibits the issue ?

Or at the very least provide the output of the DescribeFeatureType and GetFeature WFS requests as files
