Skill point order queue?

Between the new HUD with all its pretty visuals, and the simplified access to different information that tended to be behind one or more layers to access, and the extra clarity on leveling up, I'm wondering if we couldn't benefit from some kind of queue to automatically assign a skill point in a particular skill when a champion levels.

I'm not sure if quickly assigning a point into a crucial skill or insta-leveling your 6 to burst someone down is really key to counterplay, or a skill Riot wants to emphasize, but it seems like some kind of simple mechanism that saved you that concern/distraction could be cool, and simplify a fringe case that can definitely punish someone.

Obviously it would need some kind of flexibility or way to change or toggle your skill point queue (things like picking a skill level 1 in an invade _does _seem somewhat meaningful), but in 90% of cases, when I load into the game, I know exactly what I want to do, and assigning that point as soon as possible is a priority. It also seems that it can be a frustrating source of mistakes for anyone.. Just curious if this has been tested or tried anywhere, or if there's some reasoning on the topic.

I know Smite has this option for people that are really new to the game. You don't set what it picks for you though, it's just automatic so noobs don't have to be contemplating it in the middle of the match. They also have the same option for buying items, and it just auto buys stuff for you.

For automatically assigning points it seems like a great idea for new players. For everyone else, I'd just say to use the keybind you assigned for it.
