I am not sure I understand you perfectly. Does "includes" mean that the magic word has to be in disambiguation template? I hope so as these pages are marked with templates and it wouldn't be a great idea to put the magis in the pages themselves.
Yes, the magic word can just be added to the templates. No need to add it to each page.
Other: will this magic word have localised versions as the others? Or how can we localize it? (Huwiki uses mostly localized magic words.)
Yes, the magic word is completely localizable and aliasable.
Is this change subject to the next version upgrade? When?
It depends on one MediaWiki core change, which is here: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/40349/ That's the hook that allows the extension to create a new double-underscore magic word (since they are handled differently than regular magic words and parser functions).
As soon as that is code reviewed and merged in, it will just be waiting on the extension. I have no idea how long the process of getting the extension out there will take. Probably a month or two assuming it isn't shot down in flames.
