I assume this is a comment on my unique city names -patch.
 
Yes, this is a reasonable solution, but I think unique city names has
some
advantages over it:
+ first, as my patch shows, it is simple to implement, maybe simpler
than your proposal, which needs client side modifications (many GUIs)
+ unique city names helps communication between players
+ also Wonder Cities can play similar important strategic role as
capital, so location information should be added to Wonder Report
  -> even more work
+ unique city names is already implemented ... :)
