pass through?

In the hardware simulator, is there any way to indicate that a chip input should be simply "passed through" to an output? In some circumstances, the value of a certain output pin is precisely that of an input pin. And it seems silly to say:

CHIP Silly {
    IN a;
    OUT b;

    PARTS:
    Not(in=a,out=x);
    Not(in=x,out=b);
}
