No.  We are trying to simplify APRS, not add back
complexity.  There are 4 reasons why we dont need this:

1) It is unnecessary complexity we dont need
2) Users of SSn-N are typically base stations with
    meaningful traffic for a state-net, not mobiles
    driving around
3) Mobiles cross state lines and the whole advantage
    of the WIDEn-N path is that it works everywhere.
4) FILL-IN digis in many cases can only support one
    ALIAS.  Hence "WIDE1-1"...
