No more than they already do. I have to file my state and federal returns separately today (and I don't think that's different for anyone who has to pay state income taxes). It's easier because my state (WI) defers to the federal government for a lot of tax rules, but that's entirely a local decision.
If the federal government decided to make it easier to file your federal taxes they could just do it. There's no need to coordinate with the states (and I wouldn't expect them to).

If that is what you're looking for it's already done, just not by the government, HRBlock TurboTax and others, my point is, if it was for the government(FD) to look after, it would be a nightmare, they wouldn't do it as well. It works in other countries because as you're paid you're taxed on your income. That doesn't fly when you have multiple jobs, with each state having their own tax system, I'm not saying its good or bad or even that it CANT be done, I'm just saying I would prefer a company who gets paid to do it, to make sure its done right.
