Survey: How many people know that in the web-based timeline for Fossil,

I think this is a very useful feature. But I'm guessing that not many
people know it exists. Please confirm or refute my guess.
I know of it but rather by accident. It seems not to be in the
documentation/user manual(?).
And assuming I'm guessing correctly, do you have any suggestions on how I
this special feature could be mentioned in the headline of the `timeline'
display, something like this:
20 most recent timeline items (click on two squares in the timeline to get
side-by-side diff).
can get the word out about this and other useful but obscure features of
Fossil?
include the missing information in the quick start guide and user manual
;-). a dedicated and comprehensive GUI section would help.
e.g., another thing which I found somewhat difficult to locate:
how to get a timeline for a single source file. my understanding is you
first have to select/click on an artifact's SHA1 and then select
the file name in the `Changes/' section of the page? actually, it would be
nice if one could click directly on the file names in the primary timeline
display (if `show files' is selected).
