incidentally, I feel the CLI timeline would profit from a similar change

would be great, too.
It's relatively easy to create a _completely_ customized timeline using
any
scripting language which has sqlite bindings (that means most scripting
languages), e.g.
yes I know (and have fiddled with the `fsl' TCL/expect script by marc
simpson myself (http://[email protected]/fsl) in order
to get the timeline CLI output just as I want it). but that should not be
the default route to propose for the average
user (and as has been pointed out on the ML elsewhere, I believe: the sole
existence of quite a lot of different scripting solutions to wrap fossil
one way or other indicates that the CLI is found insufficient by many
people). especially, the default timeline CLI formatting really is not
nice and the CLI in general would profit from a bit more love and care
which currently is mostly directed at the web ui, it seems. but whether
that can have sufficient priority is of course not for me to decide ...
