Automatically switch to stream a specific list instead of my own stream at startup?

Is there a way to automatically show a specific list instead of my default stream when I start rainbowstream? Instead of going through: $ switch list $ @person/listName

As I'm using Guake, I solved it by doing this:

guake -n "rainbowstream"
guake -r "rainbowstream"
sleep 1
guake -e rainbowstream
sleep 3
guake -e "switch list"
sleep 1
guake -e "@person/listName"
sleep 1

I second this feature, I believe it would be very useful.

I fire rainbowstream with tmuxp which will create multiple panes automatically. My objective is to have several instances of rainbowstream with a list on each pane.

Any way to automate list switching?

Thank you very much.

@vonpupp Did you try to use the switch command? $ switch list and you'll be prompted for the @user/list_name

Thank you for your anser @supercid. Yes I have tried that but it is not automatic which is the focus of the question itself. Some sort of command line option would be the best solution IMHO.
