Why not make duplicates of your composition and render each "work area" with the appropriate frame range for each composition?

What I mean is, I need to render frames 272-500 and frames 762-914 and then 1543-1700.
I figured multiple entries in the render queue would be fine, but AE doesn't like having multiple render items with same names (even if they will have different frame numbers appended to them)
I couldn't even just deactivate the other ones. I had to remove them completely for my first range to start rendering.
