[Feature request] Using keyboard for selecting pieces

this is incredible work, vempele. didn't know you were a javascript whiz
Updated. Automatic disambiguation of rook (and queen,bishop) moves is improved: only allow a single blocking piece if it's a premove, or none if it's your turn.

Still can't make moves for the opponent in puzzles.
One of the ideas I have is to show arrows of all possible moves to a certain square, when hovering over it with a mouse. Then we could choose some key, which would move a piece to the square.

Another option is to have a key for the last used piece. So we can just press this key to move only one piece for some amount of moves. Also I can possibly create an extension, which would allow for multi-premoves with a mouse.
However, for previous ideas to work, knowledge of javascript would, probably, be necessary.
I can create my extensions in AutoHotKey.
