Change frame subtitle after a framebreak

Question

Consider the following MWE

\documentclass{beamer}

\setbeamertemplate{frametitle continuation}[from second][
  \insertcontinuationcountroman]
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}[allowframebreaks]
  \frametitle{Foo}
  \framesubtitle{Bar}
  \lipsum[1]
  \framebreak
  \framesubtitle{Baz}
  \lipsum[2]
\end{frame}
\end{document}

As it can be seen in the image, the first frame has the proper title, Foo, but the wrong subtitle (it should be Bar instead of Baz). How I can fix this? I know that for the second frame I can just create a new frame like this:

\begin{frame}[allowframebreaks]
  \frametitle{Foo II}
  \framesubtitle{Baz}
  \lipsum[2]
\end{frame}

and avoid my current problem. However I was wondering if it is possible to place an explicit frame break with a new subtitle for the continuation frame without resetting the subtitle for the first frame.

Edit After @Mark showed me this question I can do this:

\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
  \frametitle{Foo}
  \only<+>{
    \framesubtitle{Bar}
  }
  \only<+>{
    \framesubtitle{Baz}
  }
\end{frame}
\end{document}

to get the correct subtitles in each frame. The problem with this approach, as seen in the image, is that I want the title on the second frame to be Foo II instead of Foo (I like the allowframebreaks behavior of showing a roman numeral appended to the title of a continuation frame).

So my question is, can I use the overlay approach to fix the subtitle reset problem but also somehow append roman numerals to the titles of the continuation frames as allow allowframebreaks does?

Maybe some one who understands beamer can help. I give up. I would suggest \Roman{beamerpauses}, but that fails. — Mark, Apr 03 '15 at 03:32
Do you really want to encode those slides into just one (logical) frame? I mean, if you are going to type subtitles by hand, why not give each subtitle a frame? — Symbol 1, Apr 03 '15 at 08:45

Based on your edited question and Beamer - How can I add sub-frame numbers? you could do something like this:

\documentclass{beamer}

\makeatletter
\def\c@slideinframe{\beamer@slideinframe}
\def\beamerslideinframe{\beamer@slideinframe}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
    \begin{frame}
        \frametitle{Foo}
        \only<+>{
            \framesubtitle{Bar}
        }
        \only<+>{
            \frametitle{Foo \Roman{slideinframe}}
            \framesubtitle{Baz}
        }
    \end{frame}
\end{document}

enter image description here

EDIT:

To make this automatically

\documentclass{beamer}

\makeatletter

\def\c@slideinframe{\beamer@slideinframe}
\def\beamerslideinframe{\beamer@slideinframe}

\newcommand*{\augmentframetitle}[1]{%
    \expandafter\frametitle\expandafter
    {\beamer@frametitle #1 \expandafter\ifnum\beamer@slideinframe>1\relax\Roman{slideinframe}\fi}%
}

\makeatother

\begin{document}

    \begin{frame}
        \augmentframetitle{bar}
        \only<+>{
            \framesubtitle{Bar}
        }
        \only<+>{
            \framesubtitle{Baz}
        }
    \end{frame}

\end{document}

Thank you. Two questions : i) can I avoid numbering the firsr frame? (i.e I want the first frame to be Foo and the second Foo II and ii) can this be done automatically from the preamble? I would like to have the \Roman{slideinframe} always appended to the frame title without having to manually place it each time. – petobens Apr 03 '15 at 15:45
@petobens See the edit – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Apr 03 '15 at 18:18
Awesome! Can you you also please add in the answer the non-automatic solution where the first frame is Foo instead of Foo I? – petobens Apr 04 '15 at 16:32
@petobens done! – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Apr 04 '15 at 16:42
