I made a mock-up of a possible new single-screen (no click-through) order entry form, thoughts?

It'd be cool to have a function that calculated position size automatically on the basis of defined account risk. That'd probably push me over to FTX tbh.

What exaclyt does "defined account risk" mean--like based on the desired leverage or something?

No - based on the size of your account.
So let's say I want to enter a position - my entry is x, my stop is y, and I want to risk z% of my total account - those 3 variables can be used to calculate position size.

Ah! Totally makes sense. So the third thing you'd put in would be % loss if you stop got hit, right?

How about something like this?
Ideally if you can just enter 1% or 2% etc and have the qty entered automatically at that value that would be perfect.

Yup the through would be that if you enter 2% it'd auto-fill-in the size based on other parameters

Would be good but even better to have the option to input risk with position size as the output

Yup the thought here is that if you put in "2%" for % loss SL, it'd auto-fill-in the Quantity cell based on your entry and SL prices
