I see no problems here either. Obviously however interwiki links wouldn't
work when the wiki doesn't exist yet (see also <
).
I don't see any reason why WD shouldn't allow
all languages, and have
often wondered why it doesn't already. So I would heartily support a
recommendation like this.

Hoi,
At the hackathon in Amsterdam I discussed the use of Wikidata for any and
all languages.
I am of the opinion that Wikidata is not only a tool serving Wikipedias
but it can be and will be so much more. It is for this reason that I
propose that the language committee allows the use of any language in
Wikidata that has an ISO-639-3 code.
This is explicitly including any and all artificial language and dead
languages. I expect that one of the next phases of Wikidata will be using
it for lexicon related functionalities including searching for pictures in
Commons.
I hope you can agree with this and when we do, we can recommend this to
the Wikimedia board.
Thanks,
Gerard
