Choose language for places on map

... or have them in english by default. e.g. places in Japan are in Japanese signs only

Do you mean locale support for the map?

In that case, OSM does not support different locales. It would mean having to implement our own place labels, or, perhaps more preferably, find a tile provider that support this.

[tillwenke]

Yes (if it is called like this). This was a real-world issue of a friend trying to use it in Japan.

find a tile provider that support this

They all seem to cost money. Running our own tile server is also possible, but perhaps not the highest priority rn.
