Running 'set of teststep' in parallel

Hello,
I am trying to use soapUI to re-create customer usage scenarios and put them in a continuous production monitoring. Based on tracing and looking at customer code, I am seeing that a lot of them call some methods in parallel. For instance

Scenario:

Method 1
Method 2
Method 3
Method 4
Method 5

In this scenario, the customer first call 1 and 2 in a series, then based on some logic (typically extracting information from 1 and 2 and populating 3,4,5) they call 3,4,5 in parallel.

soapUI does not currently support 'specifying parallel teststeps'. Would it be possible to add 'parallel block' feature. Something like a 'start parallel block' / 'end parallel block'. Every step within the start/end block should be executed in parallel.

Thanks in advance.

Ali
