Currently this is not possible using a single command, but I have had
this problem, too, so I would welcome a patch that made it possible.
My suggestion for syntax would be to introduce a modifier on the
argument separator. Something like +:
parallel myscript ::: A B ::: C D E :::+ F G H
And if the input source is a file:
parallel myscript ::: A B ::: C D E ::::+ fgh-file
The idea being that :::+ links the following input source to the
previous --xapply style.
Normal --xapply would then be possible to do like this:
parallel myscript ::: C D E :::+ F G H
For your current situation this may work:
parallel --xapply -I ,, --arg-sep ,,, parallel eval echo myscript {}
,, ::: A B ,,, C D E ,,, F G H
