Another question will then be how these language alternates will be accessible in styles. A simple approach could be something like testing for a language attribute, like ``. (See https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/issues/327#issuecomment-667008825)...

Just a quick note: biblatex is adding multiscript support: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plk/biblatex/multiscript/doc/latex/biblatex/biblatex.tex More information under `\subsection{Multiscript Support}` (Don't know how exactly that will work. Need to digest that first...)

I certainly understand what the purpose of this is, but I do not think the solution is particularly transparent. I'd propose to add something like CSL-M's `cs:conditions` ([see here](https://citeproc-js.readthedocs.io/en/latest/csl-m/#cs-conditions-extension)).

Yes, we should add `translated-title` to the title object, rename accordingly, and remove from 1.0.2. That's a good move. `language-alternate` sounds good. Or what about `language-alternative`? In terms of structure,...
