D&D initiative is generally once per combat, but I agree, there needs to be more interaction on the list end of things.

My ambitious plan was to have each character equate to a frame with the initiative, the character's name, and three buttons -> One to move the character up, one to move it down, and one to remove it. I rejected it as over-ambitious (for a first draft) and more importantly, baroque and questionably faithful to the initiative's in-game rules.

Making the names load into the name-entry on click is pretty simple/elegant, however. Look for this in the FUUUUTURE!!!
