Currently, if you want to see the health of your potential characters you need to dig deep into the info screen (two clicks).  I find it the most useful information that is not currently displayed.  In particular if I am randomizing for a particular trait, say fast walker/jogger, and then get a character that is significantly slowed by a pre-existing injury, it is quite annoying.  I would have the create character screen list all pre-existing health conditions.  From a realism stand point, a basic health check up would likely be part of any recruiting scheme.

Thoughts?

Well you don't need a "realistic" explanation, to be honest. You're not recruiting people to be a part of a crash landing. I do agree with your idea though. It would help save time when rolling for characters. Obviously you can use Edb's Prepare Carefully. If you're like me, though, you don't really know when to stop and end up cheating yourself out of an experience.
