I know D&D 5 deliberately leaves out complicated maneuvers like disarm, overrun or trip, but it's my guess the rulebook doesn't forbid them explicitly:instead, it's in the hands of the dm how to rule when someone wants to perform and action. Am I right? For example, if someone wants to trip an opponent, I could rule to make a grapple attack and if succesfully, to trip the opponent as a reaction. This way, possibilities for a certain action, as stated on the "improvising an action" chart, would only depend on the imagination of the player and an ability roll. Does this feel right?
