Description
This would only be a problem if you had a timeline that had an event filter that's different from the default one, and you're sending an event that would be filtered with the send queue. As a result, I think it's rather low priority, although we've seen it trigger a few test failures in tests in the past.

Research direction
Start by tracing timeline event filtering and the send-queue path, then reproduce the case with a non-default event filter and a locally generated event. Done means local items follow the configured event filter, with the relevant timeline tests passing.
