Delete/hide aborted computer games

It's a bit annoying that all aborted computer games are shown in the games-played list. I like to continue certain positions against the computer (eg. analysis show a big mistake - either by me or the opponent) but a now and then I create the game with wrong parameters, or I play from multiple positions, which really clutter the list.

An alternative solution would be to allow a custom search filter for the game list / stored search filters
Actually, with an option to "continue from here" (ie. go to a position in the history and play from there) it would be easier to use only one computer game for analysis.

This is possible today by multiple takebacks, but not very convenient.
Hm, but it's not possible to abort an in-progress computer game?
@Clarkey,

I have four aborted games from the last saturday, the moves lists don't exist anymore but the games themselves are still on my profile page. And I remember other aborted games staying on my profile more than 24 hours as well.

Maybe a bug?
All the stupid aborted games against the computer are still showing on my profile page.

@olejorgenb "This is possible today by multiple takebacks, but not very convenient."

I think maybe something like "reset the game" option to the first initial position while playing against the computer would be very useful. I am having to do tens of takebacks against the computer just to go to the initial or earlier positions when I want to see how I could play differently or what the computer plays against different variations.
