this needs to be moved outside the button

Does it make a difference? 🤔

LGTM, just address my other small nit comments please 🙏

I think this should/could automatically back paginate, so you really are at the beginning of the day, wdyt?

I thought about it but it would've complicated this PR significantly and I also don't know whether it would be good UX or not to have this thing randomly scroll in steps.

This could mean a lot of backpagination however... (in the context of big and spammy rooms) I like the idea a lot but maybe let's start small.

I imagine that if we had an API from the SDK that gave at least from the store, the timeline identifier of the matching date separator, we could instead use the focus event API to get there faster, but yeah just an idea.

Element Web has the /jumptodate slash command and each date separator has a popup like this:

So it may be possible to have the same thing?

Note: this is a FF on EleWeb:

This is not exactly the same thing, tapping the FloatingDate and the DateDivider.

Telegram is handling both scenarios :

• Clicking FloatingDate do the same than what you did in this PR
• Clicking the date divider opens a date picker where you can jump to any date

I know that this is not the same thing, but clicking on the floating date is just a particular case of focusing the timeline at a specific date.
