FWIW, the LIVE555 RTSP server implementation supports this; For each 'session' (stream), you (the server developer) can include as many different 'subsessions' (tracks) as you want (and, of course, the client can, in principle, select whichever one(s) it wants).  To see how to do this, look at the code for our "testOnDemandRTSPServer" demo application.
