From Studio, or better yet from the FormZ plugin, can I specify which render node (with MXCL running in Server mode) the job goes to?

Is my question unclear? I want to be able to send a particular render job to one machine (not coop) by specifying the machine's address at the command line. Is this possible?

What I'm trying to avoid is have to start a render, hit stop, set up the scene for the manager to pick up and then assign to the render server machines.

My workflow is:
Model and texture in FormZ
Send a test render to Maxwell
Make adjustments while the test rendering progresses
Send a follow up render to Maxwell
Lather, rinse, repeat.

A slightly different permutation would be:
Model and texture in FormZ
Set up a bunch of views in FormZ
Send one view to Maxwell
Send a second view to Maxwell
etc. etc. until finished.
Make adjustments to each view in FormZ as the Maxwell renders develop.
Resend these adjusted views to Maxwell.

Can anyone comment?

Currently, you can only send to local machine.
