double send on the same track

Good morning, there is a technique widely used especially in some musical genres, which comes from the 80s which ensures that a reverb track used as an effect return is put a gate after the reverb itself. This means that you can get a long reverb to hear, but you can decide the intervention time with the gate placed after it. To do this, for example, you have to take into account that on track 1 I have a snare and on track 2 a reverb and after a reagate, I should make two sends from track one to track 2, the first having channels 1 and 2 of the track as destination 2, and the second which has channels 3 and 4 of track 2 as destination, so as to be able to trigger the gate with the snare signal and not with that coming from the reverb placed before it. To do this now the only way is to open the routing window of track 1 used for the send and from the combo send the reverb to track 2 first and again from the routing of track 1 through the combo send the second send to the track two on channels 3 and 4 which is not possible with the relative context menu which does not allow you to do more than one send to a track. The problem is that reaper does not dare to distinguish these two sends, always calling them with the same name. Is there a way to distinguish them by perhaps calling them send 1 and send 2 always towards track two? Is it a reaper API request problem or could Osara do something about it? Thanks in advance as always.
