Sorry, I don't understand this point. Why do you suggest the playback 
rate is negative? Timeline time and player time both increase and 
decrease in proportion. If the playback rate were negative the curve 
would slope in the opposite direction since an increase in timeline time 
would cause a decrease in player time.
