That assumes that the C code knows exactly which menu entries exist on the
client, and it doesn't know that with certainty. As a user i can install
JavaScript which adds more options (10, 100, 437, ...). The C code also has
no way of knowing whether someone clicks on the menu or typed in a value
themselves.

i unfortunately can't give a clear answer on that one. i've browsed through
the timeline code to try to clarify it, but the timeline is surprisingly
complicated due to the large number of options and combinations. (In the
JSON bits, the timeline code is notably larger than another of the other
JSON APIs, even though it is missing some of the newer options from the
HTML timeline.)
