Let me rephrase, and the question is for Denny unless someone knows the answer.
Lexemes at different languages share a spelling, and that is the reason why they are linked together. That kind of linkage can be automated. Some other pages (usually in other namespaces) at those projects should be linked too, but can't be handled automatically. Would they be handled as sitelinks in Items?

Hoi, From a Wiktionary point of view they are not the same. Wiktionary links articles that have the same spelling in common. For every meaning in every language they link to the articles that have a specific spelling and it is potluck if that meaning actually exists. Thanks, GerardM

As I read your proposal you want to automate IW-linkage of similar lexemes, but how do you want to handle those cases where the lexemes are not similar? Your example "the tea room" vs "le questions sur let mots" is such a case. Is this handled as a mixed automatic/manuel case, with lexemes added automatically and the additional ones added manually?
Can you elaborate on how you want to handle word form vs word sense?

It is rather clear that everyone wants Wikidata to also support Wiktionary, and there have been plenty of proposals in the last few years. I think that the latest proposals are sufficiently similar to go for the next step: a break down of the tasks needed to get this done.
Currently, the idea of having Wikidata supporting Wiktionary is stalled because it is regarded as a large monolithic task, and as such it is hard to plan and commit to. I tried to come up with a task break-down, and discussed it with Lydia and Daniel, and now, as said in the last office hour, here it is for discussion and community input.

I think it would be really awesome if we would start moving in this direction. Wiktionary supported by Wikidata could quickly become one of the crucial pieces of infrastructure for the Web as a whole, but in particular for Wikipedia and its future development.
