Multiple Redis transactions (multi/exec) in single pipeline using Jedis

Question

I'm using Jedis and I'd like to create a single Pipeline which contains multiple independent transactions (multi/exec blocks).

From what I've seen so far, it seems that is only possible to toggle a whole Pipeline into an atomic Transaction.

Pipeline pipeline = jedis.pipelined();
pipeline.multi(); // Does not return a Jedis Transaction
// From there, everything done on Pipeline is in a single transaction.

I would have expected pipeline.multi() to return a Transaction.

I suspect that having the whole pipeline in a single transaction is going to cost more than having multiple smaller transaction blocks in a single pipeline.

Is this something that is supported by Redis? If yes, is this something that can be done using Jedis?

Thanks!

After doing some more tests and digging, it appears that I can call pipeline.multi() and pipeline.exec() more than once and thus create multiple transactional blocks.
