Interestingly enough, FOSS4G San Digeo where I was just attending has had several talks about wikidata IDs usfulness in OSM... Also, AFAIK, mapbox is using WD in brands to do their searches for POIs, as that is much easier to consume than names. OpenMapTiles have discussed wikidata ids at length, and consumes it in order to translate many locations (see their import-wikidata repo).
