I actually found my own solution, which I like best (for now)... And it's quite reminds me of yours. Like, if only I saw it earlier! :)
<$list filter="[<currentTiddler>fields[]] :intersection[tag[languages]get[codename]]" variable="lang"> <$list filter="[tag[languages]field:codename<lang>]"> <$link/> </$list> </$list> this requires that John has an english field (with any value) and the English tiddler has a codename:english field (all because field names can't have uppercase or spaces or whatever...!). Thanks a lot guys! Learning to properly use operators seems to be quite a powerful tech for tiddlywiki.
