There are better, more accurate ways to do this, which generally involve running Perl scripts over database dumps. The disambiguation link repair lists on en: are generated this way. With Perl and a DB dump, pretty much anything is possible :)
Yes, but the original question was a (technologically) *simple* way. I asked this question a little more succinctly on the wiki-research-l list; Andrew (Fuzheado) tried to explain, but I still managed not to get it ;-) If, however you would like to either create this tool or write a simple "how to" guide of the method you describe, I would be eternally grateful.
