Maybe we can collect thoughts, comments and suggestions for changes for chess.com's now built-in analysis program!
My suggestions:
Add a score histogram for fast visual overview of the game (as in Shredder). That will allow you to jump right in to the interesting spots, and it will tell you what kind of game it was. ; Did someone blunder or was the victory won slowly, through hard work on both sides?
Maybe, the definition of inaccuracies, mistakes and blunders should change (assuming that they're based on score change now) when a score change is less likely to change the outcome? Perhaps, it should depend on % change? Now, white may be +7 and winning, and when making a move that will crush black let's say, one or two moves slower, it will be denoted "Blunder!". It should be called a mistake here. Losing 2 points from +7 means so much less than losing 2 points from +1.
Show taken pieces, or pieces gained. (3 w pawns vs 2 b pawns = 1 w pawn)

Chess.com did not program the engine... It's Crafty, and open source.
well, but especially if it's open source, changes can be made, right?
Chess.com may or may not have C programmers. Websites usually don't need them.

we can probably make the suggestions above (histogram, and blunder definitions). but it won't be right away.
Great! Thanx for listening!
