Can Thunderbird handle an email list as an entry in another email list?

The description of an email list here 

    "A mailing list is a sub list of an address book. An address book can have more than one mailing list.
     Any contact in an address book which has a valid email address can be placed in a mailing list. "

implies that it can only contain individual contacts with their own email address. I'd like to have an email list of email lists like

Family <Smiths, Joneses>

Smiths < John Smith ...@..., Jane Smith ...@... >

Joneses <John Jones ...@..., Jane Jones ...@... >

That doesn't seem to fit the description and, what's more, I've not been able to find a way to make it work, either.

Any hope for this as a feature? It seems a natural for recursive processing. And Eudora handled it fine.

A mailing list can only contain email addresses; if you add a list to a list, it will fail to send or send with errors.

It may work differently in a future version of Address Book, but so far nothing has materialized.
