Automatic grabbing of a call like that sounds dangerous since lots of junk characters can look like call signs and wind up as the 'next' station. I can just visualize "N6TV TU TNX...NOW P5ABC 599 050" ...like I'm really gonna work a P5 in an RTTY contest!

How about left-click on the first station, then right-click on the 'next' station. Instead of the normal F-key you use for "TU QRZ...", you use Alt-and the same F-key to trigger "TU...NOW PY4XLZ 599 315"
Right-clicking is reserved for bringing up the "context menu" (pop-menu) for most windows, so is therefore unavailable.

Perhaps the Intelligent Quick QSL feature of Win-Test is the right place to add this feature.
1.. In the MSGS window, [+] key: $QQSLC $CR
2.. In the Quick QSL Window
1.. RTTY short QSL: $LOGGEDCALL TU NOW $INSERT
2.. RTTY long QSL: $LOGGEDCALL TU DE $MYCALL $MYCALL
Since $INSERT is supposed to simulate pressing the [Insert] key, it should grab the next call in the window (it probably doesn't work right today, but maybe this can be fixed). I have not tried it yet. Maybe you'll need to put the "$CR" after "$LOGGEDCALL".
Finally, Win-Test needs to always send the "short QSL" message whenever a second unworked callsign is "stacked", regardless of the QSO count or timer.
To preserve the current function, maybe there needs to be three quick QSL messages instead of only two:
1.. Short QSL: $LOGGEDCALL TU
2.. Stacked QSL: $LOGGEDCALL TU NOW $INSERT (or $LOGGEDCALL $CR TU NOW $INSERT ? )
3.. Long QSL: $LOGGEDCALL TU DE $MYCALL $MYCALL QRZ
