IMHO, 3 lists should be more than enough for most users.
Is very probable for me to have more.

I think it's a pity that to use several automation you have to rename the linked files. That's too... nerdy. We have a GUI for gods sake.

Well, I'm aware that it's too late for this update, but maybe an improvement for the next one.

So my idea is inspired by some Calibre plugins that have a dynamic menu system (see pictures).
In the settings window of the plugin, there is a table where each line represents a menu entry associated to a list of operations.
Some advanced versions even include the possibility to make sub-menus.

How all this is stored, no idea, but it would be better than directly manipulating the file names.
A quick suggestion:
automate.txt Contains the association list "Menu entry" <-> "automate file"
automateXX.txt Contains an automate
