Can we rework policy around conditional moves so that it becomes a popular part of OGS?

Aye, I’d get bored to death if I couldn’t pre-plan 20 moves of endgame in a 9x9 whose result is obvious.

A) Only allow downloading of the sgf file after the game has finished
B) Separate conditional moves toggle and analysis board toggle
C) Limit conditional moves to 3 deep, and remove one’s ability to cancel them once set
D) Automatically i) allow conditional moves in automatch and ii) disable analysis mode

A) I don’t much care about that one, it doesn’t download analysis anyway (for unfinished games at least).
B) I also don’t care about that.
C) NO. Or make it optional. But generally NO.
D) I don’t really care either since I could leave automatch running for a long time without finding a match and never use analysis except for the correspondence tournament, teaching games and kibitz.
