That's mostly about changing the order in the middle of a fight, which is disastrous for the combat system. A house rule that allows you to act, for the entire combat, in a different order does not cause those problems. Allowing a character to skip a turn and come back in later is probably going to be fine, too. I would just be sure to require a full turn skipped, so that it doesn't render Wait redundant.
