Request: Clock Times in Analysis Mode

Dear lichess developers,

would it be possible to show the clock times in the post-game analysis mode? I'm aware that we can look at move times, but it would be nice to go to any point in the game and say: at this point I had 15 seconds left.
Right now the only way to do this is to add all the seconds in the "Move times" tab, but that's tedious, and it isn't entirely accurate (because that tab only gives 0.5 second intervals).
Since there is an "Auto play realtime" feature I take it that the exact move times are saved somewhere, so I think an update like this shouldn't be too much work.
Thanks in advance for your efforts or any replies!
Yes, I agree.

Also (though this might be more difficult) it'd be interesting to see analysis based on time remaining. For example, if one makes a relatively poor move with 0.5 seconds remaining, it shouldn't count necessarily as a blunder even if it would with 1 minute remaining...

Maybe :O
+1 I would love to see the exact times I took for a move. Very important for me. Please include this in your feature list!
# Womble I disagree with this. The analysis tool is great for learning, and it shouldn't "forgive" because of the time left. I wanna know if I made a mistake, even under pressure.
I actually came on here looking to request the exact same thing. I played my first game on here and lost to checkmate although that by no means tells the tale as it was a 30+5 and I was bouncing on increment for the last 10 moves. It would be nice if that was reflected in the analysis/replay. This way both I (when I look back at it later on or days later and don't remember what happened) and others can see when time was clearly a huge factor.

Just put the clock up in the analysis screen just as it is in the game and it would be perfect.
Ok, I just looked at the replay of my game and it does in fact show how much time was left on the clock for both players when the game ended. That's at least better than nothing but still, it would be great if we could see the clock accurately reflected after each move in a replay.
