Improve timeline scrolling

[over 5000]

Binary package hint: f-spot

Time strip scrolling could be greatly improved.
Scrolling from 1986 (my first photos) to now (2008) takes forever, currently.

I can only click and hold the arrow right to the time strip.

I wish:
- the scroll speed would increase the longer I hold the arrow button
- I could drag and pull the time strip
- I could use "jump to beginning"/"jump to end" buttons
- I could enter a year (+month+day) in an edit box next to the time strip to jump there directly

thanks for the report, what's the time strip? the timeline? the filmstrip? could you take an screenshot of it? which version of Ubuntu are you running? thanks.

The time line.
I am using Hardy.1 and f-spot 0.4.3.1.
