I have looked at this a few times, only to decide it is way beyond practical. There is no way short of rewriting all the caching stuff to have N > 1 views on the library. For example, search results are built into the cache and the cache is built into db2. I once looked at opening the database twice (two instances of db2), but that doesn't fly easily either.
However, given that Kovid is in fact rewriting the database layer, perhaps it will become practical to have multiple views of the DB. Then all one would need to deal with are the UI aspects, and of course these are trivial.
