Makes perfect sense and that's what I use now. In my script, I manage to reduce the size of the final WIM file by doing a simple trick :

1/ Use the "copype" tool with ADK
2/ Add all needed language packs, tools, etc. to the default boot.wim file
3/ Export the default language (ie: "en") to a new WIM file and use it as the base image. 4/ Export again the image to a separate file, mount it, apply default lang setting (dism /set-allintl), commit and unmount 5/ Export this modified WIM file to the WIM file exported at 3/, this will MERGE them!
6/ repeat 4/ and 5/ for every language you need.

Does this not happen automatically as soon as you have multiple images within a single .wim file? The WIM format indexes each file by its (SHA-1) checksum, so two files with the same contents should always end up being deduplicated since there's no other way to represent two identical files.
