YES, PLEASE! Wikidata Infobox uses this function to convert a language code into a site ID:
local function databaseId( langcode ) local exceptions = { ['be-tarask'] = 'be_x_old', -- Belarusian (Taraškievica orthography) ['bho'] = 'bh', -- Bhojpuri ['cbk-zam'] = 'cbk_zam', -- Chavacano de Zamboanga ['gsw'] = 'als', -- Alemannic ['ike'] = 'iu', -- Inuktitut ['lzh'] = 'zh_classical', -- Classical Chinese ['map-bms'] = 'map_bms', -- Basa Banyumasan ['nan'] = 'zh_min_nan', -- Min Nan Chinese ['nb'] = 'no', -- Norwegian Bokmål ['nds-nl'] = 'nds_nl', -- Low Saxon ['mo'] = 'ro', -- Moldaawisk ['roa-tara'] = 'roa_tara', -- Tarantino ['rup'] = 'roa_rup', -- Aromanian ['sgs'] = 'bat_smg', -- Samogitian ['vro'] = 'fiu_vro', -- Võro ['yue'] = 'zh_yue', -- Cantonese }

@Mike_Peel Great suggestion, thanks! Replacing each key part of the infobox one after the other would be no problem from a technical standpoint. But it would mean that I might have to fix urgent bugs reported after the deployment of a key part, while I'm already working on the next feature. Considering that the alternative is that I would need to fix my buggy code (written weeks ago) at the end of the project, this seems reasonable, though.
