Kepler.gl: Enable playback for date only series

[stefan--]

Thanks for the awesome lib. I believe the following use case would be a valuable addition for the playback feature:

Given a dataset including a date only series (=without times), choosing the date column as a filter should enable the playback feature so that the useless timestamp 00:00:00, which has to be added to enable playback, can be omitted.

This is particularly relevant if the dataset is fairly big (+2.5 million records) as the file size can be reduced dramatically.

@stefan--
Yea, we are aware of that date wasn't as useful as actual timestamps. Will look into this

Hi there,
Here's another Stefan echoing what the original Stefan wrote: awesome tool! Like it a lot and have many ways I like to use it. Today I found the playback feature only to realize it did not work with dates. Is there an idea of when it will be implemented?

@heshan0131 is this being developed?
