Description

I'm trying to add temporal searching to the viewer. For the time being I've chosen to take the path of least resistance and utilize the existing search/geocoder interface rather than implement something on top of time wheel and/or timeline.

I've exposed the clock to the geocoder and set the current time on the clock. The scene and the wheel are updating appropriately but the timeline is not.

Research direction

Start by reproducing a clock change through the existing geocoder/search interface and trace how the scene, time wheel, and timeline respond. Identify the timeline update path and compare it with the working scene and time-wheel updates. Done means the timeline reflects the changed clock time as well, with a regression test if the existing test structure supports it.
