I think I am doing something like what you say now. I have a view where I show events for several people mixed together. That is the composite view. However, I can "drill down" to just the details for one person.
I do that by making a separate UI that allows me to filter out the other people. However, I suspect you may mean that on the composite view you have different representation of events that you can click on one event and drill into a bunch of other events that are contained within that. Again, it would come down to you switching the events shown in the timeline. Everything I have seen suggests you need to handle the UI mechanism you want to "drill down" (click an event, use filter UI, etc.) with, then use that to get the new data to show in the timeline, which you then recreate with the new data.
