Yes, that's close to a part of the idea, but many companies wouldn't
like to have that kind of information in the hands of a 3rd party,
even if it is Google.

Notice that is still somehow incipient compared to what I had in mind.
In your slideshow (second pic) you see how many people have given up,
and where, but you don't see why.
Can you determine which was the cause? what is triggering it?
Can you somehow correlate it with the browser/agent (to know if it is
a browser specific problem)?
Can you correlate it with time?
if, for example, some change in your CSS code makes a button invisible
or not acessible making all users give up, can you find it out? (for
this, keeping copies of the application error that the user seen is
crucial)

Thank you
