Dorico does just what you want -- barlines do not line up for different 
meters in different parts, so the speed is constant (an 8th-note is an 
8th-note regardless of the meter on that specific part).

What Dorico can't do yet is to have the barlines line up such that 
having one part in 2/4 and another in 6/8 with the duple feeling of both 
parts be equal.
