For feature parity with Prototype/TransportBelt#related_underground_belt and LuaEntityPrototype#related_underground_belt. It doesn't exist because pipes don't have smart drag quick replace function but I believe there is still a benefit to having it for inter mod compatibility.

I already use LuaEntityPrototype#related_underground_belt to avoid hardcoding name lists or doing string pattern matching, so also having it for pipes would be nice.

Does that still do what you want when the fluid system is extended by mods like Advanced Fluid Handling?

Ideally pipes with custom behaviour wouldn't define/be defined as a related pipe but we can read fluidbox connections so its possible to filter them if they don't behave as expected.
