Stefan,
What exactly is the problem you're trying to solve ? It seems to me
you're on a mission:)
Here is what you should do:
A. If you have the skills, get the data and convert it into whatever
format/schema is good for you.
B. If you haven't got the skills, _fund_ someone to help you to
convert the data into whatever format is good for you.
C. If none of the above, go and acquire either A or B
Cheers
Artem

So, you're after a running target? Not so in my example schema of
exported OSM data.
And finally all this just because being reluctant to restrict key
names to ASCII without space or so?

If someone wants to start using construcción as a key and wants to
to be
rendered in the standard maps then the process is no different to from
any other new key, they have to add it to the rendering rules for the
various renderers or ask for it to be added and specify how it should
appear.
Just because I don't speak spanish does not mean I'm unable to add
'construcción' as a rule to one of the renderers and the renderers
don't
care what language it is.
It is no harder for me to add construcción(spanish) to the renderer
than
it would be to add construktion(german), our current system would
allow
both, your proposal would allow one and not the other.
