Bug Description
First, please excuse me for reporting this as bug - I can't find a way to mark this as an enhancement
Currently, the snapshot pane on the left displays the snapshot names linearly. This should be OK if the number of snapshots are less. Supposing if backintime is configured to take (automated) weekly snapshots and if the snapshots get accumulated for a span of over 5 years, it would be very difficult to locate or jump to a particular 'range of snapshots' (for e.g. snapshot created between 2009 & 2010.
It would be easier if you could provide a timeline-like control similar to that in fspot.

This should be better in answers section. I think a quick jump to a special group will do. Also lists in GTK/Gnome provide quick search.
