:and so on. We'd end up with ten or more possible categories rather than one neat category. We'd have categories for the US, USA, United States, United states, US of A, United states of America, America, American, United States Of America, United States of America, U.S., and U.S.A. - and that's assuming no spelling mistakes.

: Ok, so puting in other word: You issued two problems:
# Technical efficency
# Misspeling, or ''in correct'' naming
 
Ad.1 ''Similar attempts to produce a multi stub have been suggested many times in the past.''- I wasn't there so please allow me to say fue things. I '''don't''' try to make a ''ready to use, for any porpose, and any situation stub''. I know if it would be possible, it already would be done (hmm, ok. ''Maybe it would be done'' :) ). But porpose of Multi-stub '''is not''' to be the substytute for all kinds of stubs.
 
I see using Multi-stub in articles there for some reason a 2, or 3 normal stubs are puted. Now tell me: how much articles can it be? It could be a fue hondred, but ''"a few thousand"''? I don't thinks so.
And to say more: there is also solution for a "fue thousand uses". On Polish Wikipedia from time to time, I will scan (whit a Bot) which combinations of categories are the most offen, and for that partical cobinations of categories I will propose a new stub. I think it can the technical problem you are tolking about.
 
Ad.2 On Polish Wikipedia we sovled this problem, by ading ectra Template. It porpose of this extra Template was to change '''gramatical case''' into correct form, but it's (''by the way'') checking for correct naming of categories.
