Gamepedia: Playtime and Goals

OK, my feature requests are Gamepedia specific, here goes.

Playtime
Right now the Last played field is OK. I have a Wii and that tells you how long your session was for each game. With this in mind, wouldn't it be cool to have a little game timer attached to each entry. You click it when you start a session and then you click it again when you stop.

Goals
The other thing I was thinking about is a goals system. Basically, it would be a custom to-do list for each game. Users could create and share the lists with each other and use them to check off their progress in a particular game. For example, I could make one for Metroid Prime 3 that consisted of all of the scans in the game with hints about where to get them. As I get them I could check them off.

I was trying to do this with client side databases in HTML 5 documents, but that fell through.

So, any thoughts?

Thanks for your suggestions.

For the Goal feature, couldn't you use a Custom field right now? You can add whatever you want to those fields.
