> Client supplied timestamps should not be allowed to be negative, otherwise
> unpredictable results will follow. Especially, since we are encoding the ts
> using Bytes.Bytes(long), negative timestamps are sorted after positive ones.
> Plus, the new PB messages define ts' as uint64.
> Credit goes to Huned Lokhandwala for reporting this.
