In much the same way as default content from wikidata was a problem for en.wp, I suspect that default content for alt tags from Commons might be a problem for that community. It would be the first text content from Commons that by default becomes part of wp articles, sourced by search engines etc. There is a vandalism angle possible there, and they may argue that Commons' review processes are not setup to detect that, so that might become a conflict point. > 3.

It could be a distinguishing feature to have multi lingual alt text of very popular media items. Regarding 2. and 3. I think like in the case of Wikidata, the most value will be for other wikis than enwiki. So let's make this an opt-in feature and enwiki can vote no as usual for having it implemented there. Important cross-wiki features like this should not be blocked by just one language version being opposed to it. Regarding 4. There is a 'mul' tag on its way for labels and descriptions (T285156 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T285156>).
