Multiple Simultanious Subtitles?

[nicoz]

I've run into a situation multiple times where I could have used two sets of Subtitles at the same time. I never considered this before I purchased an HD TV / Blu-ray Player. Here is my scenario:

I speak English. My wife's first language is Spanish, but is fluent in English. When watching a foreign film in Italian, French, Portuguese, etc. I need the English Subtitles, but my wife although fluent in English has to work very hard to keep up with a movie in English Subtitles, and doesn't really enjoy the movie.

In this scenario it would be better if I could see a strip of English Subtitles while she watches the Spanish Subtitles. I don't really care how it’s done, one could be on the top of the screen and one on the bottom. With 1920x1080 resolution there is plenty of room to display two sets of text, even if the player has to scale the fonts down.

Has anyone seen a Blu-ray player with this feature, or read about such feature in any specs?

Can you think of a reason why it wouldn't be possible? Where the data is stored on this disc, etc....
