Sure, those are good tips. Much appreciated! I don't mind taking it from
there (though I probably can't do it quickly). I think my need in this case
is simpler than yours -- I won't have multiple timestamps per outline node.

Sure -- features get dropped for legitimate reasons, but that always causes
some user pain, too. Might have been nice to document an alternative rather
than just making it a lot harder. (I don't really care if it's specifically
"timeline" or something else, but I also don't think it should require a
dive into the API to do something that had been easy.)
