Agreed.  The list you suggested and the MARC 246 captions are print-centric.  Even a "containerTitle" makes inroads into the non-print realm.

There's also the connecting multiple parallel subtitles with their respective parallel title proper brethren, such as:
 Main title: Ein Garten Eden
 Main subtitle: Meisterwerke der botanischen Illustration
 Parallel title: Garden Eden
 Parallel subtitle: masterpieces of botanical illustration
 Parallel title: Un jardin d'Eden
 Parallel subtitle: chefs-d'oeuvre
