Conditional pre-move option

Some moves are predictable and we premove accordingly but sometimes our opponent surprises us.
Before a player defines his premove by moving his piece during the waiting time, if the player moves the opponent's piece to be a condition for his premove.i.e I will play this move only if my opponent plays this before.
If i don't state my opponent's move and simply premove my piece it'll try playing that move regardless of the opponent's move as usual and won't jeopardize the current format while being an additional feature.
I'd like to express my support for this feature request. I've read an older discussion on this, which was closed. So, I think it is a very good idea!
This is a thing. It's impractical for something like blitz, but if you go into analysis board, you can make conditional premoves. To get there, you click on the microscope, it will open and you can then start making multiple lines of premoves.
@xXJrHoLLoWeDXx Aha, and will these conditional pre-moves on the analysis mode be taken for the current game when my opponent plays one of this lines? I didn't know that!
