Don't know if IRRE is the best way to do it, but it sounds reasonable
because it offers you anything you asked for:

You can combine and even nest elements from the same or different tables.
After putting them together they can easily be handled within just one
editing form using nice AJAX stuff to open/close the different sections of
the element.

The archive could be a virtual one in this case, so you don't have to really
"move" the papers but use the timestamp to decide which of them should be
shown where and when.
