cluttered vs. clean area

Relevant UI component:
Timeline

Objective:
Try to improve the experience when evaluating current key curves and/or having
to change some of the effects keyframe values that are in the same clip area as
the image thumbnails and texts.

Current situation:
Thumbnails and texts clutter the area and the display of the graph is not seen
cleanly, so making it hard to operate and less simple to evaluate keyframe data
(curve shape and keys positions).

Suggestion:
To temporarily hide those UI elements when relevant.

Hiding trigger:
1. When hovering a keyframe in the conflicting area.
2. When hovering anywhere in the conflicting area (not just over a key) by
pressing a key (Ctrl, etc.)

method (1) having an advantage in discoverability (i.e. the user doesn't have
to know about the feature to benefit from it).

Note: An attached image, simply illustrates the difference between having all
those concurrent UI elements vs. a clean background, in the area.

Thanks for listening!
