Even if there should be agreement that there is a problem here, there
are other potential solutions.

Someone once suggested to have a special tag that indicates which name
tag should be used by default. I.e. we'd have tons of "name:xx" tags
plus one tag called e.g. "language=en", that would then mean: The
default name to use is the name:en name.

I think this would be more elegant than the duplication that you are
suggesting.
