Character sheet EDIT mode needs a "Set Avatar to Token" button

Character sheet needs a "Set Avatar to Token" button. (say just under Avatar's "Click  to upload" field) So I click "+Character", then a token on the board, click USE SELECTED TOKEN, then a new button under Avatar, "Set Avatar to Token". The use case I have is: I have a prepared token on the map already and don't really know where the token is in the Roll20 menus but want to set up a Character with it. In particular what has me interested is I just gathered about 160 tokens from across two dozen maps and want to set up my own mini monster compendium. The tokens are a combination of my own library, market and "web" drop-in items from the last few years and I don't know which is which. I have set them up with the "Selected token" but all the thumbnails look the same at the moment... EDIT: It occurred to me an alternative way to the same end may be to allow dragging a token from the map to the Avatar DROP field. Thanks!

Hi GM Aurelien,  You can drag the Avatar to the table from the Bio & Info tab, then turn that into the character sheet's token.  To do that open your Character, switch to the Bio & Info tab. Hover over the Avatar image, a little icon with 4 arrows will appear. Drag that icon to the table.  Note: If your Bio & Info tab has text in it you may need to remove the text first. The text can prevent the 4-arrow icon from appearing.  You can remove the text by editing the character, highlighting the text, then cut the text and save. After dragging the image you can edit again and paste the text back. 
I think that what  GM Aurelien  is asking for is the ability to set the avatar to be the same as the token, or even to be able to drag the token on the map to the avatar box on the character sheet edit screen, not the other way around. I've ran into this myself a few times when I was creating a new character or NPC and had a hard time finding where the avatar art was stored. (I've since gotten better about immediately storing image links to folders as soon as I upload them)
