Further Improvement for Chess.com

I want to hear some feed-back on this particular idea.

I think it would be of great accomodation for chess.com to have an opening encyclopedia that has the capability to label your games based on their opening. It should automatically label them under the archive games and it should be labeled when playing a current game. It would both be both informative, and a great reference tool when looking for games. The site could also put on the players statistics the most common opening use. Just an idea. What does the chess.com community think?

I do not know about having an online encyclopedia that classifies your openings, it seems there are so many variations that it would take a long time to compile with very little yield.  It would, however, be interesting to be able to classify one's games in one's archive based on openings, or whatever criteria one feels fit to use.

This has already been asked and if I remember well the answer was that chess.com team are working on something along these lines.

Recently (about 4 minutes 13 seconds ago) I posted a game I played, but it took me 10 minutes to find the one I was looking for, one of the few with a specific opening played. Having the opening code would have helped. I consider myself lucky of not having an archive of 2000 games on the site.

How about some chess variations?

A few come to mind, first check wins, there's one where the pieces are set up in opposite corners. 

 I can't remeber any others off-hand but they were always fun as a novelty.
