Can you try this (untested !) patch ?

It adds an 'loop_back' option. This means: when loop on a request, loop
back to the Nth previous request in the session.

In your case, in request4, you want to loop to url1, so 2 requests
before request4 :

<match do="loop" sleep_loop="1" max_loop="1000" loop_back="2"
when="match">Retry</match>

If it works for you, i will commit the patch in the trunk
