 When an author lands on their Dashboard, the widget would show posts they
 published on the same month and day in previous years, grouped by year
 with the most recent first. Each entry links to the post for quick edit or
 view. **This is especially cool for drafts and unfinished posts**.

 This gives long-time authors a gentle nudge to revisit old work, spot
 patterns in what they write about on certain days, or republish/refresh
 content that has aged well. For new authors or on days with no history,
 the widget shows a friendly empty state.

 This would hopefully delight users and encourage them to comment on their
 post pasts with new posts.
