Would this make sense for putting romanized text above non-roman languages?
Currently the standard is just to write the native text and then the romanized. See, e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weekly_Sh%C5%8Dnen_Jump https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weekly_Sh%C5%8Dnen_Jump
I'm thinking Hepburn above the kana:

Anyone with more language knowledge want to cuss me out this idea?
