Default Running Ninja Strategies with Multiple Data Feeds in Simulation Mode

I've been running NinjaTrader connected to two simultaneous datafeeds (Gain & Zenfire) and I've found that as far as I can tell there's no way to place Sim trades on the 2nd datafeed when doing Sim trading.

The Ninjascript strategy is being loaded on the ControlCenter Strategies tab by using right-click to select "New Stretegy".

When this is done, I can select "Sim101" which always seems to be connected to the first datafeed.

Is there a way to get a Sim account created for the 2nd datafeed (e.g., "Sim102")?

I wanted to be able to do this, so I could use data from one market (e.g., Forex) to help me make strategy decisions on how to trade a different market (e.g., CME Currencies). Also, I'd imagine having access to the 2nd datafeed would also be desirable for placing trades in both markets with Ninja's Multi-Broker feature if one were interested in arbitrage.

Is this just not supported?

If not, would it be a big deal to define Sim accounts (Sim101, Sim102, etc.) for all datafeeds to which one is currently connected?
