have an option to call nested properties within a process

we have scenarios where we would like to call a application property inside of a agent property reference, 

Example:

we need to call below from a shell step in component process,
value = "${p:agent/{p:application/mnemonic}.agent.propertyname}"

Currently its not possible but would like to have that nested property developed to enhance our working structure.
