One thing I would really like to see in DnD Beyond, is a tool that allows you to create a "session" for your game night, making it possible to search for multiple monster stat blocks and add them all to the same page. You can take it a step further by being able to create multiple encounters and save them in the same session if you plan on having a couple different encounters during that particular night, allowing you to be a little more prepared ahead of time. There have been countless nights, for example, where I have had three tabs open with a Bandit stat block, a cultist, and a wolf, then I have to keep swapping tabs so I can pull up the proper one when it is their turn in combat. A session builder would put all three of these stat blocks on the same page.
These requests would all probably fall into the campaign management rework. Being able to plan your campaigns, sessions in that campaign, add monsters and custom npc's to a quick list and planned encounters, being able to run those encounters with initiative order and have a party overview with important stats such as HP, AC, etc.. are some of the most requested features and would go a long way in helping run games via dnd beyond more easily and streamlined.
I really hope this is something that they are working on and will push out as soon as possible after the character sheet revamp (which I'm also hoping will release SOON!) =)
I second this motion! If anything, having an easy way to switch between characters would be great so I don't have to have so many tabs open on my browser!

In addition to this, I would love a party view to see the players pertanent stats such as AC, passive stats, and the like.
