I have taken a quick look at the template and do not think it will take much time to support. We generally do data pushes about once per month, so it may take that long before users would see any articles pop up in the Wikipedia layer that have been tagged with this template. Of course, this is also dependent on the database dump cycles. If there is not a new dump available when we kick off the next round of parsing, it might be two months.
The {{coord}} template has been agressively pushed forward regardless of support, on both new and converted coordinates, so there are many articles with data for testing in the previous database dump already.
By the way, outside this list, please keep the usual Wikimedia tech contacts in copy for messages related to reuse of our data.
