As was mentioned the closest you are going to get in current Calibre is to use multiple book records with the different records only varying by what is different (e.g Language, ISBN etc).
Suggestion for calibre programers. It will not require multiple set of metadata- it will require 2 more fields in database and new operation join.
fields will be joined_to_other records:boolean and joined_records:list
When you preform join operation first selected record will fill joined_records list with ID of other records, and other records will have YES in the joined_to_the_others. In the title list there will be + when joined_records is not empty and records with joined_to_the_others equal to YES will not be displayed until expanded.
