Forum:SH:Making a better Timeline of media: revisited

I've spent a lot of time updating the Timeline of media and during a discussion about combined timelines of books and novels (but not comics, etc.) I came across a project started up by User:Morbus Iff back in 2011 that ratcheted up the functionality of the page several levels, allowing you to pick what media types you wanted to view. There was a previous Senate Hall discussion at Forum:SH:Making a better "Timeline of media" where the functionality needed was added to the MediaWiki:Common.js and Morbus Iff had started moving over the media from Timeline of media, but it petered out at that point. The functionality of this page is way beyond what we have currently, with the ability to filter out media types, sort by media type or year or author or title, section editing (though I added that to the current timeline), dates are easier to find, etc. The original project is located at User:Morbus Iff/Timeline of media. I transferred all the current information on the Timeline of media page to User:Tainb'ocu'chulainn/Sandbox Timeline in the new formatting (regular expressions are amazing things), and I'd appreciate some feedback on it with regards to the functionality and style. The columns are slightly different, and could be changed back and I'm thinking of possibly making each era hidable. I still have to fill in the gaps in dates and authors, which I should be able to finish in a day or two, but I wanted to get the feedback ball rolling.
