Chain as recipient of a recipient-list-router

Can I use a router in a chain? Practically the recipient of the router should be a chain. It should be something like this

<int:chain>
    <int:recipient-list-router>
        <int:recipient>
            <int:chain>
                ...
            </int:chain>
        </int:recipient>
       ...
    </int:recipient-list-router>
</int:chain>

No; a recipient in that context is a channel not an endpoint.

You would have to declare the (inner) chain as a top level element with an input-channel and the recipient would reference that input channel.

<int:chain ...>
    <int:recipient-list-router>
        <int:recipient channel="foo" />
        ...
    </int:recipient-list-router>
</int:chain>

<int:chain input-channel="foo">
    ...
</int:chain>

Of course, if the RLR is the only element in the first chain, as in this example, it is worthless and you might as well declare it as a top level element.
