That was what I was asking anyway (when I spoke about Bakthiari, this was already the case: language name translatable, even without the core data to have its own locale).

Each locale has to be a case by case basis: which code, which script(s), who is signed up to provide core data Etc.

Cldr doesn't handle "autonyms" separately, they are just a part of core data.
