generic handler registration

Hi,
 
Usually in order to implement a specific OID into the agent, the OID has
to be registered with a specific handle which is called when the user
performs a request on that OID. My question follows. Is it a way to
register a parent OID, i.e X.Y, with a generic handle to be called each
time a request on a child scalar OID i.e X.Y.Z1, X.Y.Z2, …, is
performed. This would allow a generic implementation of a collection of
OIDs. A MIB evolution which would add X.Y.Z3, X.Y.Z4 would not require
an agent code update which is usually the case when every child OID is
registered into the agent. The proper instrumentation could be easily
done since the (child) OID is in the request (i.e.
netsnmp_request_info).
 
Thanks,
Eugen Pavica
