You might want to consider a proposal that I submitted to
WHATWG/WAI/HTML recently, see
http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-July/021658.html
. It indeed introduces markup to reference a file - and it could
reference a DFXP file. I am planning t make a demo with DFXP though
the current demo only uses srt for simplicity.

Best Regards,
Silvia.
