It should work to initially display the layers, but I doubt it will work 
with the movie loop.  It looks like you might end up with multiple 
timestamp listeners and they may not update the correct layers.  You can 
certainly try it though.

Not without modifying some code.  The standard specifies that it should 
use the Dimension element.

The list of timestamps is generated and stored as the 'timestampList' 
property of the Context model, See MapPaneOL.js for how to access it.  
You might also be able to use the MovieLoop tool with <maxFrames> set to 1.
