Dario, I would love for the WDQS to support federated queries. Since we are discussing the topic of federated queries, I would like take the opportunity to mention SWAT4LS in Amsterdam next month. I have been using federated queries using Wikidata for some time now, that is federation from outside WDQS. Next month I am going to present different ways to apply federated queries on Wikidata at SWAT4LS (http://www.swat4ls.org). On the subsequent hackathon I will suggest federation on wikidata as a hackathon topic. Any other wikidatians joining SWAT4LS?
