Ok, so there are 4 files in total? One MKV, and then in a sub folder are three other MKVs.

Interesting, I've not seen this done before it must be some kind of linking involved. If you could find some documentation on how these special edition MKVs are built it would probably be most helpful to the devs.
As for actually implimenting it as a feature it would have to depend on at least two things, #1 how easy it is to develop, #2 is there a big enough demand by the user base.
It seems like a neat feature. If implemented, I would imagine that it would work very well when pressing Play on a movie. At that time is when the Resume dialog box appears if you have previously stopped the movie. The dialog could contain a choice of the versions available, just like your selection menu in MPC.
I found some docs regarding this, it's called Linking and is made with mkvmerge:

I think that the separate audio tracks have different chapters setup, and the Extended Cut must have links in the chapters for where it's supposed to play the extra files. So it plays most from the first file, and then moves around to the others and might ultimately end on the first file depending on what material is in the extended cut MKVs.
