You got me wrong: I use multilingualism in my categories package so that every category can be translated in several languages. To speed up queries, I actually cache all names and let a tcl proc figure out the name in a particular language (if there is none available in that language use the default language - extremely hard to do that in a sql query). All I'm saying is that I don't see a fast and scalable way to do so when storing object names and we currently didn't have that feature when using acs_object.name either.
