Wire: How direct to a desired target node by a selection

I have multiple VideoPlayers (each one for a different kind of pre-generated background), triggered by a Transport Play.
I am currently using a Switch to then choose which one to use.
This seems inefficient, as (maybe) all background videos are "playing" when only one will be used.
What I'd like to do (see attached image) is choose where to "shunt" the Transport Play and only have one background video triggered at a time. Is there any Node dedicated to doing this? (I can see how to do it with some maths and logic gymnastics but it's not pretty and hard to maintain.)
The Node for this would have multiple outlets, only one of which is active/chosen.

Thx. Clever solution. At least addresses my immediate need.
Longer term, I think there is a use/need for a node like PureData's 'route':

Copy For Sharing
When you select any number of nodes and right click them, there will be an option to copy for sharing. This will turn your patch into a big mess of text that you can copy and paste onto a forum, chat channel, private message or your diary. The other user can copy that text and paste it into Wire (right click on an empty spot on the patch and paste). This is the quickest way to share patches among users.

Awesome,
I think we have a ticket for a kind of "reverse gate" node one input many outputs.
