Suggestion: filter somecharacter sheet fields out of the drop downs for token bars etc.

I love the character sheets, but they do make a few things more awkward. Specifically setting up the token bars, and other places where you need to select from a list of your attributes. Right now if I want to link a tokens bar to a specific attribute, the list includes all the attributes on the character sheet, including the ones inside repeating sections. Since auto calculated fields and repeating fields aren't displayed on the attributes and abilities tab to keep players from breaking them, shouldn't they be filtered out of the drop downs for the bars too? Or maybe there should be a way for the sheet creator to flag them as include/exclude from those lists? HP and AC are common enough auto-calc fields for the bars, but my imagination fails to come up with a use case for repeating fieldset attributes in the token bars....

If they used a different field, like one that lets you begin typing the name of the attribute and only populates the drop down with attributes that fit the name so far, then that'll probably help a lot. But removing options isn't the solution, you don't know if someone else's game uses auto-calculated attributes and such for their own purposes on tokens.
