OK I don't claim to be an expert in this field. But I do my best.

Any connection between different streams should logically be made on the
OggStream level, so to speak "above" the vorbis format. Concerning storing
different languages and different audiotracks together with, for example,
Tarkin video, thus forming a DVD-like movie format, is DEFINATELY an
OggStream concern.

The current haste to get Vorbis 1.0 out the door has put OggStream and the
Ogg multimedia project to the background for a moment I guess (the Xiph
guys may answer this better than me) but there are definately plans for
this kind of things, it only needs working on.

There exists an application for intermingling Vorbis audio and MIDI data I
think, so with this as a starting point you could try to build a
convincing prototype of the features you want. I am sure we would all be
happy to review them and add in comments.

Hope this helps.

Linus
