I'll code it soon. The biggest open question is what syntax to use. I think I'll go for [[Sidebar:Wiktionary:Bla]] (where "Sidebar:" would have to be localizable).
If I understand him correctly, Brion has argued that these links should be automagically displayed if there is an article with the same title on a sister project wiki. That would be nice, but harder to implement.

Hoi, It is not a good idea to have automagic links; the reason for this is that it does not take into account that there are these disambiguation pages and consequently namaes that do not match, it does not take into account that wiktionary has both lower and upper case characters. As to the syntax, why not a short IPL for InterProject Link. It would also be nice it the shorthand like w: and wikt: would be possible as well.
One nice feature would be, if you have a link one way to have it automagically also the other way. Another point is, do we allow for IPL's that cross a language divide (this would ask for [[IPL:w:en:Bla]]) ??
