last year there were actually discussions in Italy whether to put other names 
than Italian in the name tag in some areas (where this language wasn’t 
currently recognized as official language but used on the ground (AFAIR, 
groundtruth was disputed by some, but it was hard to verify)). In the 
officially multilingual areas people are tagging multiple languages in name:
eg https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/47207

this is not very beautiful, while it was IMHO a good compromise for the past, 
maybe this could be solved nicer with a new approach?

Cheers,
Martin
