Comment (by mkoch):

 That means the example works only if the inputs are defined in the same
 order as they are required by the streamselect filter. Shouldn't it also
 work if another order is required, for example [2][5]?
 In that case the sendcmd filter must be written at another place in the
 filter chain, where only one input exists. That makes the filter chain
 hard to understand.
 It would be much better readable if sendcmd could be written directly
 before the target command.
 If sendcmd gets more than one input it should simply pass them all to the
 next filter.
