Description
Add a updown control on the hit points text box, and some buttons "5" (set the textbox to 5), "+5" (add 5 to the text box), "surge"
Just like in D&D 4E combat manager

The up/down is what is called the Spinner control. This is probably possible. The thing is that the Damage text box actually allows formulas, like: "s + 2"(surge value + 2), or "(b+13)/2" (Bloody value + 13 divided by two round down). This is much more powerful than just the simple buttons. Have you used the formulas?
However the "5", "+5", "surge" buttons are a good idea. They would make it simpler for people that are new to VCC. Don't care for the icons
I wonder what we would do if the formula is present and the user click on the up and down. Maybe we should block the spinner when the formula is present.
