Remap parameters in included file

Hello guys, this is a snippet from my launch file

<remap from="/a" to="/prefix/a" />
<include file="xyz.launch" />

file xyz.launch contains:

<launch>
<param name="/a/hello" value="10" />
...
</launch>

sadly, the remapping does not work. Is there any way to make this work without having to place the remap in file xyz?

One option could be to use relative param names in xyz.launch (instead of absolute ones) and put the include file inside a group with a namespace:

<launch>
  <group ns="prefix">
    <include file="xyz.launch"/>
  </group>
</launch>

<launch>
    <param name="a/hello" value="10" />
</launch>

Not exactly a remap, but if you just whant to add a prefix, it should work.
