That is the ideal setup for XHTML output (but not for PDF output) IF the 
number of common pages is significant and IF we can find or develop and 
XML/XSL framework that could generate that hierarchy without break the PDF 
output.

For the first "IF" we don't know yet what will be the real number of common 
pages and where will be they located. 

If, for example, the common pages are all together at the beginning of the 
book, then maybe with to change the master {book} to {set}, to create a 
{book} for that common pages, and to add the required {book arch="XX"} for 
the rest could be enougth.

But if the common pages are missed along the book, then there is two problems 
to be solved:

First, to create a profiling engine that, instead to remove from the output 
the undesired marked blocks like it do now, will generate a separate page for 
each arch into their own dirs containing only the related text for each arch. 

And second, to generate the TOCs and navigational links properly to can read 
each arch book linearly based in that new pages locations.

Nothing impossible, I think, but very difficult to implement.
