The problem is, the items on the timeline take their permissions from TICKET_VIEW, BROWSER_VIEW, WIKI_VIEW, etc. I'm not sure of a trivial work-around here, except ugly hacks. I guess the quickest workaround I can think of is making a "new" timeline view that makes a subrequest as an authorized user and returns the result (or, well, minus the navbar and all of that. But the problem itself really goes against the grain of the permission system (and common sense) so, personally, I wouldn't want to do this and wouldn't do this unless my boss told me to. Maybe someone else can come up with a better workaround? Again, though, I wouldn't want to solve this problem.
