It's a quite specific task and I don't think map swipe should support it
directly. But I added context menu (r58489): right click in the list of
layers and you get options to copy the map names in clipboard. There are 2
options for different order of maps. Names are separated by comma so you
can just paste it in r.patch input parameter. Do you find this solution
helpful?
