Oh yeah, I would love to hear a great workaround for that one as I can't decide on it either.
Funnily enough I am sitting here trying to decide on exactly that case for Diana Wynne Jones with the Howl's Castle Trilogy. I don't have book two in the trilogy, but I do have the "Wizard's Castle" omnibus which includes books one and two. Sometimes I just put (Omnibus) after the title name and give it a series number at the end of the series (in this case 4), particularly when I have the book individually. Sometimes though I give it the same series number as the first book in the omnibus it contains. Other times I might give it a title like (Omnibus 1-2). Though that makes duplicate matching more problematic. Just too darn hard
