The advantage I see with "timeline" is that it's already building a list
of all checkins from a single huge SQL query (don't matter which file it
touch), Then it's easy to filter out what we don't want from it.

In the other hand, finfo is only building a list of checkins affecting
one particular file. To be able to easily modify it for a complete sub
directory is the equivalent of calling finfo multiple time and them
merging result to have one consistent list.

I didn't check the code in detail for finfo command, but my impression
is that starting from timeline is easier and more optimized, but I could
be wrong..
