How to use forwardTo with parameters?

Basically I want to automatically forward this route:

/channel/:channel_id/

to this one:

/:client_id/channel/:channel_id/

But, since the first route does not specify any client_id, I want to use a default value of “foo”.

This is what I have but obviously does not work:

const router = createRouter(
	// routes
	[
		{
			name : 'channel',
			path : '/:client_id/channel/:channel_id/'
		},
		{
			name      : 'channel_old_api',
			path      : '/channel/:channel_id/',
			forwardTo : 'channel'
		}
	],
	// options
	{
		defaultRoute  : 'channel',
		defaultParams :
		{
			client_id  : 'foo',
			channel_id : 'lalala'
		},
		trailingSlash     : true,
		strictQueryParams : false
	});

If I open the browser in https://localhost/#/channel/alpha/ it fails with:

Uncaught Error: Cannot build path: '/:client_id/meet/:channel_id/' requires missing parameters { client_id }

Is there any way to use forwardTo with extra default parameters? Something like:

{
	name          : 'channel_old_api',
	path          : '/channel/:channel_id/',
	forwardTo     : 'channel',
	forwardParams : { client_id: 'foo' }
}

Thanks a lot.
