Is it possible to pass a callback into a node that redirects the port out to another node (like a IinkIn event receiver)? I don't mean create a LinkOut that takes the message from the node, or a switch that routes it explicitly. I am wondering if you can dynamically pass the callback into the node via the message to include the routing within the nodes input event?
```auto
n.on("input", msg => {
msg.payload = doABunchOfWork();
// instead of this
n.send(msg); // <- which just ports out
// something like
n.send(msg.targetsOrReceiver, msg); // <- not likely the method but ideally the idea is it doesn't just port out rather it emulates the link In-Out broadcast/receiver functionality
});
```
Thanks,
Justin
