Add Time component to GEView

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What should this feature enhancement do?

Allow to control time programmally if the timeline support is added

Are there any known workarounds that produce the similar results?

This is certainly a critical aspect in all phases of advanced time-enabled 
animation.  
I want to be able to initiate the time control, modify or lock its 
configuration, stop 
it, reset it, etc.

Roman, is there any reason why the time controller is unavailable in the api?

Using the GE API v1.006, I get an error (Uncaught TypeError: Object [object 
Object] has no method 'setBegin') for the following code:

var timeSpan = ge.createTimeSpan('optional_id');
timeSpan.setBegin('2009-01-01T17:00:00-08:00');
timeSpan.setEnd('2011-05-05');
ge.getTime().setTimePrimitive(timeSpan);

Likewise, using timeSpan.getBegin.set('2009-01-01T17:00:00-08:00') also results 
in an error (Uncaught TypeError: Object function getBegin() { [native code] } 
has no method 'set').

Can you please verify these errors?
Thanks!

The docs have a typo.  Please try 
timeSpan.getBegin().set('2009-01-01T17:00:00-08:00')
