Are we talking about the display of item labels? If so, then I would agree that the display of the native name in the English interface would be desirable. None of the Indigenous artists I reach out to in order to validate their identity have user account. Consequently, they see labels displaying colonial names in English and this is disincentive for them to want to engage with Wikidata. I acknowledge this is not a forum to discuss naming policies, but I had to mention this nonetheless.
