Change Request: Enable own input on Born, Backgrounds & Gifts drop-downs #1

Wow. I really like that all the options from the current 1st edition of the black hack are available in the drop-downs. I like to hack my games, so while this is truly impressive as a feature, would it be feasible to have a way to either configure the content of the drop-downs or at least to be able to enter a free-text not covered by the available options?`This would be desireable for at least Born, Backgrounds & Gifts. I would like to expand these options to cover more items in my own home game.

That's a big ask especially given that the backgrounds impact characteristics and are fundamental to character creation. I'll have to have a think about how that might get handled.

Okay, I've made a release that incorporates a custom origins/backgrounds capability. Note that you'll have to enable it via the system settings but you'll be able to define your own origins and associated backgrounds. It's still a little rough at the moment but I'll look to refine it a little. Remember that you'll need at least two origins and each origin should have at least two backgrounds. I've also opened the birth field up to be a freeform text field so you can put whatever you want in it. Gifts were already customizable, so done nothing there. Give it a go and let me know whether you find any issues.
