F10 doesn't render arbitrary frames

It seems that the Octane LW plugin, when pressing F10, only renders what is specified in the single frame range, but selecting the arbitrary option and entering several frames separated by a comma has no influence, Octane will still render whatever frame or frames are specified in the "single" option. Is there a way to make it follow what's in the arbitrary frames field?

This is not something I normally use, but a render I left working overnight rendered five frames completely black, so I wanted to render only those frames all at once, since my scene is rather heavy and it takes quite a while to transfer the scene to the graphics card VRAM, and then to give me back control of the scene once it's rendered.

Yes, this is a limitation of the Lightwave SDK, that doesn't have functions to read the arbitrary frames information.

I want to add this feature myself along the 2.x development cycle.

Oh well, not a terrible deal anyway.
