Summary0007362: Time modes not useful
DescriptionThe fact that the time keeper/manager uses all time steps available makes it useless.
When a filter modifies the output time from N steps to N/2 steps (or other), the snap to time steps feature is useless as the time values for the intermediate steps are invalid for that filter. This causes execution problems as it is triggered repeatedly with duff values
A Time mode "Snap To Filter TimeSteps" which only iterates over the output steps for the selected filter/source (a drop down combo would be good) is needed.
Usingf sequence mode is one way aropund it, but only if the output has regualr steps. With filkters producing log time, it's hard. TemporalSnapToTimeSteps can be used to snap to the steps wanted, but other filters still get the crap values.
A new Time mode is the only solution I can see being useful

Now the context menu on the pipeline browser
has a new checkbox "Ignore Time". If checked, the source will no longer be
considered when determining the timesteps or timeranges for the animation.
Whenever a temporal filter i.e. a filter with "TimestepValues" property is
created, its input is automatically updated to "ignore time" so that the inputs
time will not be considered in the animation (unless of course the user forces
it). This may be a more acceptable solution than creating a new play mode (as
suggedsted by BUG 0007362) or using timesteps from visible objects (as suggested
by BUG 0007799).
