I think we may have to revise our policy to allow those cases where automatic transliteration is impossible, even if script is the only difference. Of course, community decision rules supreme on that (i.e. if a wiki community wants to allow both within one wiki, we wouldn't force a split on them). Could we agree on that?

I have ALWAYS suggested that it is a good idea. Automatic transliteration from 
caseless scripts to caseless ones is impossible. Automatic transliteration from 
scripts that leave out vowels is also.
