As far as fansubs go, technology is out there so that you can have multiple subtitles in one file. One recent example would be fansub group GG's version of Macross Frontier's final episode. Macross is inherently a very musical show, and the last episode in particular is like a 20-minute AMV with singing almost constantly throughout. GG's version allows you to choose whether or not you want the karaoke for the songs displayed (which defaults to 'off'). So, I think if fansubbers used this feature more often, particularly for insert songs in an episode, this can be alleviated. I think retail DVDs have been doing something like this for a while, be it subtitles for insert songs or translations for signs and all that stuff.
