it would be... interesting. But you'd lose a lot of quality in Europe, while the other fronts would be given more emphasis than they deserve.

yeah, you´re right but the huge advance would be that the other fronts would appear for the first time. i´ve never seen any kind of ww1 scenario containing the global war.

All I know is that in order to properly handle all the necessary events around the globe, a batch file or perhaps even ToT would be needed.

Unit limitation
You'd have to make a fundemental decision about units. If each nation gets its own infantry, cavalry, artillery, and air force, and navy, you'd have no slots left for wartime evolution -- e.g. tanks, German Stoßtruppen (sp?). I think you'll need some generic infantry, etc., instead. Plus colonial troops, present in high numbers outside of Europe would need their slots.
This may need ToT simply for the 20(?) extra unit slots.
El Awrence's comment reflects one of the biggest challenges you'd face.
Are you thinking of single- or multi human player?

Despite it's name, WW1 wasn't really much of a 'World War'. Most of the action was in Europe, with the campaigns outside France, Italy, Russia and the Balkans being nothing more then side shows. Aside from the Middle East, all of the other theatres of WW1 involved relatively small numbers of troops fighting quick campaigns in 1914 (the East Africa campaign lasted untill the end of the war and involved large numbers of British Empire troops but wasn't at all significant)
