This is a great idea. The Irish OpenStreetMap community have done
something similar for http://maps.openstreetmap.ie/ . Ireland has 2
offical languages, Irish and English. We did something similar with
splitting it into 2 separate layers. I just copied the Mapnik style file
and manually deleted name stuff from one and delete non-name stuff from
the other. You have to keep the ref shield symbolizers in the name
mapnik file, otherwise they'll collide.
