Suggestion: Timer visible during game analysis

I have a suggestion for an addition to the analysis board. Game Analysis is a great tool for helping with my game "post-mortem". But sometimes--especially when looking at a game from some time ago--I wonder whether a mistake that I made was because I was crunched for time, or whether I genuinely missed something. Therefore, my suggestion is this:

I think it would be helpful to add the current game time left in the game after each move. Just a simple timer on the side that shows the clock at that particular point in the match.

I don't know technically how difficult this would be. perhaps one of the developers can look into it?
Does anyone else think this would be helpful?
100% agreement, this feature would be great.

I tried to study some high-level crazyhouse games, but since most of them are played at very low time controls, it's hard to separate the well-thought out moves from the time-scrambles. Knowing what the clock said at any given time would go a long way to solving that problem.
Well you can simply look at the graph of the times right under any game on lichess.
Themanp15: you are right, I forgot about this feature. But It still doesn't tell you how much time you have left. Also, it gets tedious calculating elapsed time based on a graph. But it is helpful.
