[Orgmode] Timestamp display behavior in timeline view

I am trying out the timeline view in 7.4 and am wondering whether this is expected behavior:

0. create entries with timestamps [1]
1. M-x org-agenda
2. L (Timeline for current buffer)
3. current behavior:
( + is unsurprising, ! is surprising, ? is not sure whether to be surprised)
  + entries without time information not displayed
  + timestamps without text not displayed
  ! entries with timestamps display the text, but not the timestamp
  + timestamp ranges with text displayed as-is
  ? timestamp ranges without text are displayed as-is
? cycling TODO state with "t" in the agenda view causes non-displayed timestamp to appear
  ? cycling out of TODO again keeps the timestamp visible

I can understand that TODO will want to read the timestamp information out, but since ranges without text appear, but single timestamps don't, maybe there is something unexpected here. I haven't found it mentioned anywhere yet in my searches, nor have I looked at the code. If this can be modified via the source or a configuration, I'd greatly appreciate some advice.

Thanks, and happy holidays!
