Multi-Rename Tool: is there a way to call MRT in standalone mode (with a nonmodal MRT window)

[beb]

Is there a way to call Multi-Rename Tool in standalone mode (with a nonmodal MRT window)?

There're tools capable of running standalone, e.g.:
- Search [Alt+Shift+F7], [cm_SearchStandalone],
- Synchronize dirs [/S=S],
- Lister [/S=L],
- Compare by content [/S=C]

I'd like to have something like that for the Multi-Rename Tool.
If there's no such option yet, I'm asking Mr. ghisler(Author) for one.

Just to complete your list - You can also open a standalone search with the /S=F parameter

Support++ for a /S=M parameter for standalone Multi-rename - if feasible (maybe the Undo function could be a problem)

Just in case there is AutoHotkey expert with an interest in this idea, TC user majkinetor had a go at making a copy of TC's MRT tool, called MRS - code available here https://github.com/majkinetor/multi-rename-script
It can work with (some?) plugins too.

Note it is for a very old version of AutoHotkey and would need to updated to iron out the syntax errors that it now throws if you run it with the current AutoHotkey v1.1+ branch.
