Karma History on Game Load/Accept Screen

I would like to suggest that the recent game Karma history that is visible from a players account screen is shown with their total karma score on every game load in screen.
I think this is more accurate than the percentage (some players that with high karma are actually frequently leaving games unfinished because they are able to build it back up quickly and some new players to the site may show as having poor karma for too long and not be accepted into a game.)

There is no way to quickly navigate to players accounts page from that screen to see if they are frequent leavers in the past few months, or just left maybe once out of 200 games. You can navigate from the lobby screen, but not the game loading screen, that starts up immediately after the last seat is full.

It would also be nice if, as the table administrator, if the game didn't boot players when the admin declines. It is not clear to me why some of the players are booted, but I think it's frustrating to players when I decline games because I don't want to play with someone else at the table that has low karma, and they are booted from the table themselves. I simply want to return to lobby and decline playing with a specific player, not everyone at the table.

This is in response to having played too many games lately where players are just abandoning games on the last round because they are not winning. I propose this graphical change in order to help those of us who do not do this avoid wasting our time in games with these players.

For examples, while waiting for a game's seats to fill, I clicked on another players name (who showed Karma of 100) and looked at their recent history. They have abandoned 18 games "recently". O.O
Nothing in the game lobby or game load screen reflects this though.
It would be helpful if it did.
