That would be useful everywhere, not just for non-English languages.
Another interesting idea would be to generalize it to a "script
library" idea. This vaguely reminds me of how you'd register stuff
with the Assitant architecture with the Newton - non-function words
(like preopositions), verbs which then attached to Newtonscript
function objects - I don't remember much of it - I skimmed over that
chapter in the NPG.
