I doubt it.
I'm not sure whether anything has been done to the timeline view over
the past few years, but already in 2011, Carsten had this to say:

| properties for being used as a planning tool for the coming
| day an d week. It also included the possibility to look
| at several files, which made the timelines view of a single
| file look poor. Since then, the timeline has been a more
| or less orphaned feature, and this is why it does not
| work well with stuff like repeaters (repeaters where added
| MUCH later).
