Polling could help a lot toward not having a long talk about every single decision. We'll see whether we're in agreement or not immediately.

That means I'd also like a "confirm" button before the decision is finalized by the game.

The loot from loot selection is rarely helpful for more than one person. Might as well poll on it.

It remains strange that we can't hand a book to Gale or ask Lae'Zel to push on that door. Usually, you can ask companions in games for a little. Situationally that won't be possible, of course. But, some switching isn't a crime.
