I did a thing I called 'mirroring' wherein the user decides individually whether or 
not a page somewhere else should be shown in the current location.  The page record 
has a 'mirror' field that, if an ID is in there, then that ID is used for data 
retrieval rather than the 'true' current page.  Mirrors are made by clicking on a page 
in a tree view of the site, and the page getting mirrored has a view of its own that 
shows all the places its mirrored to (and deals with what happens if someone tries to 
delete it when its still mirrored to X different places).  

And of course a 'slave' page is red-flagged in the editor area as such so no one 
wastes time editing it unless they break the mirror first.

Certainly not a simple approach, but for my app gives the user a lot of power without 
any query gymnastics.
