Well, I thought this was actually possible through a crazy set of components (I did something similar to this @ ACADIA...Scott dared me), but wasn't able to get there. The closest I came was getting it done, but only via extracting one index of the list at a time. Hopefully without some of the data flattening hurdles, this could be done through grasshopper w/o a scripting component.
