Hi,
This is the plugin I was referring to.  I don’t see it in the current plugins (experimental turned on)  so I figured it’s QGIS 2 only.

The problem with the function that you are indicating is that it take a single Multilinestring and create a simple linestring if the ends are connected.  What I am looking for is a way to select a file made of simple linestrings and to merged them into a single multilinestring if they share a node or share and object that shares a node.  So, for example, if you had two cities separated by a river (and there was no way to cross the river), all the roads would be merged in two objects, one for each city.
