EF-S lenses working on EOS R?

I was thinking about selling my EF-S lenses ahead of the release of the R. But if I understand it correctly the EF-S lenses will work on the R body? Thinking of keeping some of them instead if that's the case..

According to the leaked specification, they will work on the R body (and may even be a good choice for shooting 4K video - if it is 1.75x cropped, as currently assumed by the collective opinion on this forum).
