Back in January I asked for feedback on a new, experimental "timeline" question view.
We have finally come back to improve this view. We tried to incorporate most of the feedback from the previous round, and I'd like your feedback on those improvements now. You can only get to it via URL hackery and it is only on meta at the moment!

The intention here is:
- to provide an optional "pure chronological" view of a question
- to more easily keep up with highly active questions, where the # of answers, comments, and edits is large
Yes, there are still a few bugs, but we plan to iron those out .. the goal is to roll this out as a feature linked from each question, sometime in the next month.
edit: the way comments are displayed out of chronology is currently rather busticated (and slated to change), but we did improve it somewhat.
