There might be another option. Given a hstore database or wikidata column it
would be very easy to build a query_wikidata psql function which will query
wikidata like this:

select query_wikidata(tags->'wikidata') from planet_osm_point where ...;

This would be only a few lines of pl/pgsql wrapper code using pgcurl:

The problem that was identified the last time that this was discussed was that we weren't able to find a scaleable way of querying wikidata:

Obviously that's much less of an issue for countries (228 values) than for "all names in OSM" (53,258,173 values)
