Of course, we'd need similar templates for Cyrillic and Arabic scripts. But they could be named {{Президент}} and contain {{#switch:{{{1}}}|США=Обама|Россия=Медведев}}, etc.
That's yet another feature I'd love to see for Mediawiki: automatic transcription. Something like {{#transcribe: Barack Obama | en | ru }} (and one additional parameter if there are different common transcriptions for a language pair). Coding the function is trivial, it just needs some work to create the transscription tables.
Would be useful for the datawiki, but Wiktionary would benefit too, I guess.
