A dismiss units command would be useful, but the devs have so far not considered it worthwhile to implement. There is a modded solution available by llamabeast that utilizes a spell that kills friendly units in target province ala Flames from the Sky.
There´s a bug with it, through: the AI will keep casting it at you as if it was a real spell, wasting mage time.

But there are some god viewer programs such as CatGod that will read your pretender creation file for you.
But its ALMOST no programming at all.

You have the image of the god, at the time you created him.
When you click on your god in the pretenders list, pop up that image.

Voila.

Ive programmed some of those popup displays. Its not something you toss off in an hour. Especially not when supporting 3 very different operating systems and many screen sizes.

Since the devs have already moved on to a new project, coming back for for a nicety like this is probably not going to be high priority. Especially since its already available by a 3rd party program. Maybe if a full single-screen view of the god was already written but even during creation you dont have that the way the various downloadable god-viewers offer.
