Would definitely be possible, it's just a question to decide how to
configure them. 
Would it need to switch several items simultaneously or is it enough if
it switch item per item ?

If it's enough to switch item per item we could add a switchinggroup
concept so only one item within the same switching group is visible at
the time.

Scrolling text is supported, so that should be possible already today.
It's controlled by the "animate" attribute on all *text item types.
