Sounds like something from list-abs, though I wasn't able to find an
abstraction for that specific task. I had a similar need recently and I
made it a bit more generic now. I call it [list-delimit]:

It iterates over all elements and switches the route when it hits the
'delimiter' element (e.g. 4 in your example).
