Ordinances Ready
I would like the ability to request a certain number of ordinances of a type at one time. For example, I might want to use ordinances ready to select 3 or 6 male endowments at a time (more efficient use of paper) or 12 sealings to parent. Today, when using Ordinances Ready to select endowments you only receive 1.
Further, I would like the opportunity to select ordinances on a specific family line, rather than just a random selection from the system. I might say, give me 5 male endowments from descendants of (insert an individual or FS ID). That way, I feel a stronger connection to the people in that part of the tree.

Ordinances Ready is intended to be a very simple way to obtain ordinances to perform on an upcoming temple visit. The numbers of ordinances provided are set by the Temple Department. Although I can understand why you might hope for more names to be provided, I doubt that such a change would be made, since it would complicate the user interface and would not be consistent with the goal of a simple way to prepare for a single temple visit.
As for the suggestion to focus on a specific family line, that would also add complexity to the simple user interface, so I doubt that it would be added to Ordinances Ready. But I think that's a great thing to focus on. If you want to do that, I'd recommend that you select an ancestor in that line, then do the Descendancy view for that person's tree on the website, or use the Descendants with Tasks feature on the mobile Family Tree app. Either of those options will show you names of people in that line who have ordinances to be done. Another benefit of doing this is that you can add many names to your reservation list (up to 300) and not be at all constrained by the limits of Ordinances Ready.
