Can you give me the trace and the values you used?
Or did you use it on live capture (Can we detect if a capture is happening? In
that case we should disable this option)

> 3. Maybe add a descriptive tooltips for the various selections in the "Time

Will do.


> 2. Put a "Undo Time Shift" function as a menu item below "Shift Time" in the
> Edit menu?

Knowing the minimal amount of people who will use this feature, is it worth to
use another line in the dropdown menu?

> 4. Add an indicator somewhere to tell time shift is active?

Where is somewhere and is it really necessary?

> 5. Isn't "Ctrl-A" used for select all?  Maybe find another shortcut?

See comment 13 I believe. Your commit has already removed it, didn't it?
