Can you snap multiple objects in Unity3 ?

So you have an object in a hierarchy of prefabs like that, which is how things are getting imported by default. And there are million reasons why things should be like that ...

object prefab(empty GO)

   object container (empty GO)
      mesh1 
      mesh2
      mesh3
      mesh4

   object container (empty GO)
      mesh5
      mesh6

and you want to snap your things to another mesh ... but if you select the top empty object container the vertex snap doesn't work for the hierarchy below??? Which means that you can just snap your mesh1 somewhere then your mesh2 somewhere else and then try to bring the empty GOs to fit with your result. Which is simply more work than doing it by hand getting the root and try to match it. Is there any way to snap a whole hierarchy ?

Vertex snap will only allow you to select for use vertices on the currently selected object. If you only select the top object in the hierarchy, then you will only have its vertices to select from. If you were to select multiple objects in the hierarchy pane (with shift, ctrl/command), then you can select for use any of the vertices of those selected objects.
