Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

First off, thanks for making audiobookshelf. I use it every day.

It would be useful if I were able to selectively share playback history between users.

Why would this be helpful?

Most of the time my wife and I listen to audiobooks / podcasts separately. However, there are some podcasts we will listen to together. Sometimes on my phone, sometimes on hers. It would be useful if it were possible to see on (for example) my phone the episodes that have been listened to on hers.

I am not a ux designer, but here's a couple of options

Audiobookshelf Server Version

2.10.1 (docker)

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

Episode 566 and 567 were both listened to on my wife's account, it would be useful to know that somehow on mine.
