Can an asset point to the content of a stream element?

Question

Is there a way to put in an asset some kind of pointer to a stream element?

What I mean is something like this:

1) Alice issues an asset and transfers it to Bob. While doing so, she includes a pointer to an element of a stream.

2) Bob follows the pointer and retrieves the stream element.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

Yes, absolutely. Assuming that each transaction only contains one item from each stream, you can put the txid of the transaction that wrote the stream item into the asset details. Then use the getstreamitem API to retrieve the stream item, given this txid.
