Hintlets show up in Timeline graph for events that occur after page transition

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The hintlet indicators in the attached screenshot did not actually occur on 
the chrome://newtab page - they occurred after I loaded an app and a page 
transition occured.

SpeedTracer gets page transition notices after the actual page transition 
begins.  The next page adjusts its start time backwards to find the true 
page transition (start of the main resource load).

What seems to be happening here is that the previous page length is not 
adjusted accordingly.

This is the still true but we have decided not to deal with it. In many cases, 
the notification that a page transition has occurred does not come through 
until after an initial page load and sometimes events. However, these events 
are copied in to the real page's events. In most cases, people care about 
seeing everything for a particular page load, but once they've moved to a new 
page they are less inclined to go back and analyze the previous page.
