I am getting convinced that the temporal data visualization support should be added to QGIS core. A single time navigation toolbar (from/to, start/stop, previous/next) and temporal support in data providers (QgsVectorDataProvider::getFeatures, QgsRasterDataProvider::block). That would allow simultaneous animation of temporal data from various sources in different formats (time frame defined by band, layer or attribute). There are already 3 plugins for temporal data management [1][2][3], writing another one seems misconception and wasting of resources.
