Sequential page numbers on alternate pages
I'm not sure the situation is as grim as you think. I think the 2-page spread approach gets you most of the way there. It should be quite easy to prepare English-only or translation- only versions very by importing the appropriate flow into a conventional, single-page template. (Remember that the File>Import>File operation imports on a flow-by-flow basis, so you can import the two languages into new container documents separately.) And if you really need to print a side-by-side version, most print vendors should be able to handle the imposition required to produce page signatures from a PDF that contains 2-page spreads. The one thing you might want to do to make it easier to verify that the imposition is correct is to number use the same number but a different language suffix on the left-hand and right hand pages (e.g. 2-F on the left-nand page and 2-E on the right-hand, English page) of each 2-page spread.

If you could create a custom variable which calculates ((current page number + 1) / 2), that would do the trick. Does anyone know if this is possible?
