 Given the enwiki habit (or should I say arrogance?) of blocking
people with usernames containing non-ascii characters, I sincerly hope
that you are just speaking your mind without thinking...

 Otherwise, your ideas would pretty soon lead to wikipedia being an
english-only affair, with the various languages splitting of projects
of their own. Is that what you want?

 As for the whole idea about global blocks in itself. Forget it. It'll
just lead to further alienation of projects that are not enwiki.
