Why not? I can't think of any problems.
They still are a lot of languages?
I don't
think it'd get too much support.
Maybe, but substantive objections would be useful.
You would need to deal with the parser, for
linking to non-ns0
namespaces. I'd prefer not to add a new complexity there.
It has nothing to do with the parser. When the parser finds a link,
it just passes it off to a Title method. As far as I can think
(without having actually tried it), it would be a fairly small change.
There might be ugly cases of <nowiki> or other tag extensions inside [[
getting a different behavior.
This should work fine with a global language
preference, shouldn't it?
Only for the later usecase.
Why doesn't it work for the first use case?
The special page names are shown in the content language, not in the
user language.
