We do have a way of marking works as parts of the parent/full work already.

Ordered parts for works is something we've certainly wanted for a while.
It's not technically trivial though, unless we did it by literally adding
"next in set" relationships, which can be a pain to maintain and are at
most a hack :) The ordering should probably be stored in the part-of
relationship, ideally (IMO) by this being an n-point relationship that
includes all parts instead of n "has part" relationships.

You can add several movements to one recording already - what's missing
there is the ordering.
