Lightroom: How do I send a raw file directly to Camera Raw in Photoshop?

This is both a Question and an Idea.
I prefer ACR in Photoshop over ACR in LR because the PS version of ACR has a filmstrip. It makes it so much easier to see edits before committing to them especially when you edit a group of images that will be stitched or blended. My problem is in LR, when I click edit in PS, the image bypasses Photoshop ACR. It's not the same as a smart object and that is not an alternative because it also lacks the filmstrip feature. The only work around I have found is to start directly in PS and use FileMy question is, Is there a plug-in or a way to enable me to push images from LR directly to PS ACR?
My idea is, if there is no such functionality, there should be. I had these abilities is CS6 but they are gone from CC and I miss them terribly.
