live chess should have a hidden ratings option

It would be cool to have an option where you are paired up with a random opponent with both ratings hidden. Then at the end of the game the ratings are revealed. Anybody could be matched up together and players have the option of having the game be rated or not.

Interesting idea. Seeing your opponent's rating can bias you before the game even starts.
