Yes, yank and union is the correct approach.

The output of yank is a list file, so the input to union should be 
@filename to read a list of sequence addresses from the file.

If you just give the filename it assumes it is sequences (perhaps a 
fasta file of sequences to be joined).

We will add this to our feature requests - it should be possible to make 
seqret handle ranges from circular sequences. This will be after the 
next release as it requires rewriting the way several library functions 
work to allow the circular range.
