Move to Frank O'Connor (director)?

[edit]

There is another actor Frank O'Connor on Wikipedia whose page has been named using natural disambiguation via a still-used but also-still-less common name in order to avoid clashing with this actor Frank O'Connor. However, it dawns on me that the O'Connor on this page was also a director. Would it be reasonable to parenthetically disambiguate this page as "Frank O'Connor (director)" so that the other page can be disambiguated to "Frank O'Connor (actor)"?

Potential downside: any piped wikilinks to this page on Wikipedia right now are for "Frank O'Connor (actor)", so moving this page to "Frank O'Connor (director)" and the other page to "Frank O'Connor (actor)" could cause piping problems. I don't know how extensive a problem that would be or what would make it surmountable, so I figured I would ask here in the hopes of avoiding such a problem in case anyone else interesting in this page would be able to help with that.

After a year, I've decided to try going forward with this so as to bring Charles Francis O'Connor in line with WP:MIDDLE (as the other actor O'Connor was not widely known as Charles or Francie, making the full name as an article title an unnatural disambiguation).
