Hand & Brain Mode

Playing hand and brain chess seems to be good for training the brain to look for all the moves in the position, but it's not always possible to find a partner.

I propose that a hand and brain variant could be added where two players play brain against each other with Stockfish 8 as the hand. The player would move by clicking any pice and then the top line with that piece kind would be played by the engine. So occasionally, maybe often, the piece which moves might not be the exact on you clicked.

I guess the engine would likely need to run in the browser for this to scale well?

It should also be possible for the players to play the hand by just telling the user the pice in the top engine line.
