Love the new dragging functionality! I take your point about timelines in 
general privileging the linear dimension: and this is as it should be. The 
exploration of that linear dimension _is_ the utility of a timeline. 
Having said that, however, It might be helpful to subvert the linear view 
just a little, and a two dimensional summary might be a way to do it as 
David Karger has suggested.

At the very least, I think there ought to be some sort of indication that 
there is more above or below the line. Making your existing indicator, the 
'scroll' bar on the right, permanently visible wouldn't take up much room 
and would provide the necessary prompt.

Thanks for the further innovations.

Jon
