Manually Edit Loser's Bracket
When utilizing challonge in addition to other tournament software, often times the Loser's bracket seeding is different. If we could manually shift around the loser's bracket side as well, it would be nice.

I fully agree.Not only the loser;s bracket but entire bracket shape should not be auto generated into fixed positions. Would really like to edit it freely and be able to do below things.
Currently Challonge auto shapes bracket according to the number of participants. This auto made shape is good for the most parts but sometimes the organizer wants to make things a little different. For example, the organizer may want to make sure that new players face a higher skilled player only after duking out with other new players first. This is always not possible with auto made brackets.
Also, it would be nice if the position of the tournaments can be swapped in the tournament list screen that shows up when I click my tournaments menu.

We have exactly the same problem. We want to use challonge to live-document sports events who use some other scheems of seeding. The winner bracket can be manually rearranged. However the Losers/Hope Bracket is fixed.
However I propose a more general scheme:
Add the feature to challonge to generally define the seedings in brackets (and "external" numbering of players and matches). This would just need an intermediate absract layer and ANYTHING can be achieved. -
