Progressive Chess addition to Lichess

I really love Lichess, and I think it is great. But there is a variation of chess that I have played OTB before that I think would be fun online. It is called progressive chess. Here is the Wikipedia page:

I would really love to see it added to Lichess. Thanks!
This is a fun variation! I have played it a few times otb. I second this suggestion!
I believe a programmer can relatively easily create a progressive increasing move algorythm.

#5 al·go·rithm (n.): a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer.

So here's an algorithm:

That said, as #4 noted there are actual challenges in developing & implementing Progressive chess. (There's a difference between easily understanding a problem and that problem being easy.)
