Would be great to be able to do that, but the current method would be to just
stop rendering and use +C to continue later. At least for Windows.
Should be possible to either use that on the command line before beginning the
animation frames (before any frame is made) or after stopping the rendering
(adding +c before restart). Just jumps (eventually) to the next in line needing
the render.
