GM might want to alter the character sheet
Oh, and: Would this be satisfied by the system's ability to change ownership on the character sheet easily? (That's not in doubt, just the ability of the GM to assign ownership of *other* people's sheets.) The electronic equivalent of the player handing over the sheet, the GM scribbling on it and handing it back. Or in the case of system-illiterate players, the GM writing up character sheets and then handing them out to players.
Some of the latter case (a GM writing pregens before players sign up) is probably better served by the electronic equivalent of the photocopier, so as to let the mustering system do its work. GM puts up a bunch of pregens, and the game pitch says to photocopy the one you want and use it in your application. Because otherwise you have to email the GM to get ownership of the pregen, then apply, and I'd rather that was automated. Also because then if you have more than one person who wants to play the same character, they can both apply, *and* you can apply with more than one character in case you don't get your first choice, etc.
