Thus one would need an additional external database to render a proper map!
I don't think that this is the way to go in such a simple case.
Frankly I don't care that much about the proper name tag itself, but I don't
think that there is a single valid argument for tagging an english or french
name in addition to the local one if this langage is not common a particular
country.
The only argument I could think of here ist tagging for the
renderer. As I already said, such stuff is making it very difficult to
render a proper localized map.
