Batch process MXI to EXR with embedded alpha?

Does anyone know a way to use the Maxwell UI to batch process MXI files so that they export to EXR's with embedded alpha information? If I manually export a single MXI file and answer "Yes" to "Embed channels" while there is a main alpha channel (not just custom alpha channels), it will pre-multiply the alpha channel into the main pass, creating an RGBA channel within the EXR file.

So far, I can only seem to get the batch MXI functionality to only separate the alpha channel into a separate file.

I figured I could probably script this, but I wanted to know if it were possible through the UI.

Thanks!
