Then there needs to be a mechanism by which the timeline GUI code can inquire whether every packet includes timing 
information.

The change to allow dissectors to share per-capture data (not "private" data, "private" means you *don't* share it, as 
per Michael Mann's comment) would be a mechanism to do that.

For now, just change "private" to "per_capture" in the function and variable/field names and to "per-capture" 
elsewhere, and wait for it to be approved.
