Description
A Zendesk user requested support for automatically advancing the timeline, for a presentation.
While it doesn't seem central to our use cases, it seems pretty easy to implement with a simple option like autoadvance=5 to specify a number of seconds before advancing.
Of course, if implementing this also demands adding play/pause buttons or UX for a general reader to change the speed, etc, it becomes complicated quickly.
Another basic question is "what happens at the end?" and "do we need richer advance speed specification than assuming n seconds?"
Anyway, logging this here for input/prioritization.
