If a point event has a Start/earliestEnd/End in correct date order and
no latestStart, the timeline label has an added (but factually
incorrect) error message "PROBLEM: latestStart is > earliestEnd".

The docs are a little unclear re use of latestStart & earliestEnd in
point events as opposed to duration events. The above set of 3 dates
in a duration event works just fine.

I think this is a bug as supplying a point event with a correctly date-
sequenced Start/latestStart/End (i.e. no earliestEnd) creates no such
event caotion with error message.

I'm aware a point event's duration tape ignores latestStart/
earliestEnd data but the docs stop short of saying these parameters
may not be supplied for point events. As data is worked up it may flop
from point to duration event or vice versa.  The above means that a
point event should only have a start date and optional end date.

Would it be pertinent to flag this limitation in the docs wiki?

Mark
