Description
Hi:
First of all, congratulations for this awesome package.
In our work (a city council), we need to display a time series of maps. I managed to convince some colleagues to use tmap for some other use cases, but when we have the need to display some timeline of maps, I don't know if I can suggest them to keep using tmaps for this need.
However I've seen that there seems to be some plugin in leaflet to do so, and some other packages in the R ecosystem porting that feature: https://github.com/timelyportfolio/leaftime > addTimeline()
Is there any plan to port something similar to tmap?
(so that we don't need to move back to leaflet maps from within R in those places where we were happily using tmap so far)
Thanks in advanced

Research direction
Start by reviewing the requested Leaflet plugin, leaftime, and its addTimeline() feature to understand the expected timeline behavior. Then compare that with tmap's existing capabilities; the issue is complete when tmap supports a comparable timeline of maps without requiring users to move back to Leaflet.
