Fast-replace pipe with modded storage tank

I have what is effectively an inline storage tank (it has some script behaviour but that's not important). It's 2x1 just like the Pump. I'd like for the player to be able to fast-replace pipes with this entity just like you already can with pumps, however just setting its "fast_replaceable_group" doesn't seem to be cutting it. I can fast-replace a pump with my inline tank just fine since they're both 2x1, but attempting to place it over pipes just gives "Pipe is in the way".
Is there something else needed to add the "pump can replace two pipes" behaviour to my entity?

No. Fast replace only works for same-size same-group entities.

Except that you can place a pump over two pipes and fast-replace them that way. I was hoping to get that behaviour with my entity.

No. Fast replace only works for same-size same-group entities.
Same for splitters and belts?

Uhm...no? I just tested in 1.0.0 and that doesn't work for me. And the 2-belts to splitter thing is most likely hardcoded to entity type.
