My understanding is that this is exactly the purpose of mulWS. Sounds like an ideal approach to host it there, though I don't necessarily see the need to interwiki the work. Just create an author page on the relevant wikis and link to the work. If there was the possibility for xwiki modules, and templates to be hosted there, that would seem like an ideal approach that aligns with what is done with ProoferadPage.
