Problem with that option is that on Wikipedia you
cannot see what the
label on Wikidata is. The Wikidata label may have been changed for
another reason (in the Manning case, say, a different transcription
from Latin to Cyrillic), and then a choice like this would force
someone to decide which of two changes is the most important without
seeing the other one.
Sort of related, there is a gadget on some WPs which displays a
summary of the Wikidata item underneath the WP article title. I didnt
see any takeup for it on English Wikipedia.

This would also help people *see* that the WD label needs updating.
