Hi Brendon and Angela,

It's a great idea to discuss sharing custom card components--both auto-name 
population and nested value lists are high on our list. 

Right now, we're working on a component that enables all fields within a 
card to be visible in the top card, regardless of cardinality. The 'add' 
occurs post-entry, rather than before, and the overall number of clicks to 
access, populate, and save fields is heavily reduced. This won't be 
relevant for everyone, but if you prefer single form-style data entry and 
have deeply nested branches, this simplifies user navigation. We've still 
got a little ways to go on it, though.

Cheers,
-Mike
