Integrated devices not available in "Swap Device"

I am using the Shelly Wifi Integration, and I'm happy with it. Each Shelly device is created as a device in Hubitat, and works as expected except for one thing... the Shelly devices are not available in Swap Device. Not a huge deal, but I thought I'd throw it out there dor discussion. Has anyone here found a workaround, other than manually switching devices in apps?

Child devices are not supported by Swap Device, as described in the documentation …

There is one way to sort of get around this issue.

You can create virtual devices that mirror the real ones and then use the virtual devices in automations. I think you'll want to mirror in both directions. Virtual light changed by automation, actual light changed by manual action.

Then you can use swap device on the virtual devices since they aren't children.

The built-in Mirror app can be used for this.
