I was thinking of listing stuff in all available languages, not just a
single variant.
As you have said, this is a tool for us, picking up the detected
language for display is not necessarily the best approach. Of course if
we start seeing entites with 10 langiage variants of the name then we
may need to think of something better, but for the time being, let's
hope for the best.

but perhaps we do want a single name
