116600b20a Timeline: draft a concept to attack the custom layout
the core question is: how to translate time into pixel coordinates

2ea89fcb54 Dispatcher: rework loop control logic
- we got occasional hangups when waiting for disabled state
- the builder was not triggered properly, sometimes redundant, sometimes without timeout

As it turned out, the loop control logic is more like a state machine,
and the state variables need to be separated from the external influenced variables.

As a consequence, the inChange_ variable was not calculated properly when disabled in a race,
and then the loop went into infinite wait state, without propagating this to
the externally waiting client, which caused the deadlock

b68d0f24cb Library: settle long standing confusion regarding time border conditions
basically we can pick just any convention here, and so we should pick the convention in a way
that makes most sense informally, for a *human reader*. But what we previously did, was to pick
the condition such as to make it simple in some situations for the programmer....

With the predictable result: even with the disappointingly small number of usages we have up to now,
we got that condition backwards several times.

OK, so from now on!!!

Time::NEVER == Time::MAX, because "never" is as far as possible into the future

d3d7ea35ad Global-Layer-Renaming: fix remaining textual usages and IDs in the code
- most notably the NOBUG logging flags have been renamed now
 - but for the configuration, I'll stick to "GUI" for now,
   since "Stage" would be bewildering for an occasional user
 - in a similar vein, most documentation continues to refer to the GUI
