Feature request: puzzle history

Lichess has a nice system that stores the history of all your past games, so that you can easily go back and review any particular one. It even has a nice line graph that tracks your rating over time in every chess variant.

I would like these same features to exist for puzzles. It would be very informative to be able to track my puzzle rating over time. Also, it would be nice to be able to go back through puzzles I have done before, for example to share a particularly interesting one with someone else.

Both of these features already exist partially: on the Training page, there is a line graph tracking your rating over the last few puzzles you've done, and also a set of links to these recent puzzles. The request is that these features be extended to all past puzzles, so that your puzzle history is accessible from your profile in the same way as your game histories are.
I will second the motion for a history of training puzzles. I have many tactics books but they are stagnant, they do not adapt to my strength.
Plus there is a lot of value in reinforcing patterns, hence reviewing history. Mostly for the ones that I missed. Books don't have red and green for each puzzle. Bottom line-- doing puzzles online is waaay more efficient.
PS: there is one great site that was posted on this forum-- http://blitztactics.com/ this is great for the simple, direct tactics and mating patterns.
www.ChessTempo.com offers a history. However, I like LiChess because you have a decorative background and interesting chess pieces. I spend 10+ hours/week at ChessTempo doing engames and call it the dungeon.

Another great physical book for tactics is The Giant Chess Puzzle Book by Zenón Franco Ocampos. However there is no instant feedback or analysis board.
Count my vote too :)

I could be willing to give implementing it a shot if I know the author is positive to the feature
It would also be nice if puzzles you already have attempted (solved/failed) had the game link available without requiring you to solve it again.

And the analysis link should really include the whole puzzle history (don'¨t need the whole game). I always click the analysis link only to discover it's just for the end position, then I go back to click the game link and I have to solve the puzzle again..
@Kitty-Meow: No... that isn't what this thread is about

I've tested, and the system definitively stores more than the 20 latest puzzles. (I simply kept the oldest puzzle, did another, and attempted the kept puzzle. My score didn't change)
