Kelley, these are excellent questions, and ones that I think do not

Just a brief (and unfortunately not very helpful) pointer to the
documents of the FRBR Task Group on Aggregates, which, in my opinion,
thoroughly failed to develop a viable solution to the issue of packages
containing multiple works:

Also, Heildrun Weisenmuller has made some interesting comments in this area:

"Working Paper" and diagrams).
This is a very hard problem, but I feel like if we don't solve it in our
current design work that we will greatly hinder the ability of libraries
to answer reasonable questions like: "Do you have a copy of X?" when X
is not a stand-alone publication.
