Mystic can do a double telnet back to Mystic.  That is the only working example that I'm aware of at the moment.  Looking to see if there is a work-around to solve this, which likely has something to do with the telnet negotiation process.  Maybe some need it hard coded - or if there is a way to send the parameters to "both telnet sessions".  Maybe some are doing it on just one of the telnet sessions and not both.
