Non trivial to implement, and many (most (vast majority)) wouldn't want the extra level of complexity.

If it were to be done, then a mechanism to cater to author pseudonyms would also be nice. I'm thinking of a Calibre-Heavy but I suspect more folks would prefer a Calibre-Lite

One of my 5 favourite books at all is «Oblomov». From the russian original, there are many translations to Italian (my mother tongue language), many different editions, with different notes, prefaces, and so on. But maybe it is not work group them together into the same record, you can just create a record for every edition (as a matter of fact, they are different book with different ISBN) and just search for the name to get them all.
