Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/rivo/tview/issues/158

Right now there is no way to remove an item from a list without clearing the list and re-adding everything. It would be nice to have a method to remove an item, probably something like:

func (l *List) RemoveItem(index int) *List

I started to implement this in case the request was accepted, but it occurred to me that there's non real way to track where an item ends up, or a way to sort lists, so it may be that the list view just doesn't work well for anything that's not append-only. Maybe it needs more work, or isn't the appropriate view for this.

You're right, List currently lacks these functions. It should have them and I'll add them in the next few days. I'll update this issue when it's done.

Apologies for getting back to you so late. This function is now part of List. Let me know in case there's anything else you need.
