Bug 194365 – Web Inspector: Timelines: clicking on an empty space in the overview should deselect any selected record bar

• Component: Web Inspector
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Devin Rousso]

Once a record becomes selected, it's basically impossible to deselect it.  We should provide a way to deselect that makes sense.

My fear with that is that we'd end up breaking some other functionality with the mouse in Timelines.  This approach seems the least likely to cause regressions.
