"Take names from list" option in ant renamer

EXPECTED RESULT
I think that there should be an option to rename files from an external list which might be selected as a file or pasted as text in KRename with one file name per line.
Such a feature would use the sorting that has already been applied in the "1.Files" tab of KRename's interface similar to the numbering feature. Also the option to preserve the input file-extension would be appropriate with this option.

This option could be made similar to the "Take names from list" option in ant renamer.

So, to make sure I understand you correctly, the first file would be renamed to the first entry in the list, the second file to the second entry and so on?
