International Text. I think all text types should be supported.

I am working on a multicultural project that features characters fluent in foreign languages and who speak those languages in the TV series. As this I feel, as well as the diversity in authority figures in the show, makes it a concept with a high likelihood for international popularity. I tried to list the alternative titles and I was unable to as only the Western and Cyrillic Alphabets are supported on IMDb. I also think that allowing talent to use their native languages for their names or AKA blurbs I think would help increase world use of the site. I have had difficulties casting Asians fluent in their native languages, I suspect because those who don't speak fluent English don't use IMDb, making casting for Asian roles, where fluent English is not necessary difficult. I think IMDb should be more true to International Movie Database and support international Alphabets. What do you think?
