support for multiple video streams in an mkv

Dealing with multiple versions of a movie brought up an idea. All versions share the same audio/subtitle-tracks, so why not allowing an mkv to have multiple video-streams and give an option to select the desired one? In my example I'd be interested in putting a 4k and 3D-version together into one file, but it could also be used to add multiple encodes for streaming.

Define a naming-scheme for those streams and we are set, maybe even use such name-tags for some semi-smart pre-selection?

Such an secondary videostream could also be interesting for an nextgen scrubbing-implementation, like including an very low-bitrate/low-res-version for that purpose...
