Sure, but as I recall we waited until common usage changed. When that
happens for Kiev/Kyiv we can change it in the same way that we did for
Dacca/Dhaka etc. Although government-sanctioned spelling is a
significant part of this puzzle, it's not enough to overrule common
usage outside government, and while we're in reasonable doubt we can
leave things be.
