Can a component in a sibling viewport have a child router?

[brian-skinner]

Question:
If a path in an App's $routeConfig specifies sibling components (and the html file has corresponding named viewports), then is there any way for one of the sub-components to have a Child Router (as in the CorpusController example below)?

In app.js:

angular.module('app', ['ngNewRouter'])
  .controller('AppController', ['$router', AppController]);

AppController.$routeConfig = [
  { path: '/demo', components: { left: 'toolbar', right: 'corpus'} }
];
function AppController ($router) {}

In CorpusController.js:

angular.module('app.corpus', ['ngNewRouter'])
  .controller('CorpusController', ['$router', CorpusController]);

CorpusController.$routeConfig = [
  { path: '/foo', component: 'foo' },
  { path: '/bar', component: 'bar' }
];
function CorpusController ($router) {}

Yes; this should "just work." If you're having an issue with it, can you please provide a reproduction via jsbin, plnkr.co, or jsfiddle so I can take a look? Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply.

Here's a plunker that shows what I'm attempting to do:

I'm not sure that what I'm trying to do actually makes sense, because I don't see how the parent-level router could know which of the sibling viewports has the child-router.

Thanks for looking at this!
