Details

Bug 859042 added markers for the 'load' and 'DOMContentLoaded' events, though the user only gets two lines displayed within the timeline without any hint what they mean.

It should be made obvious to people that those lines mark those two events.

One way to do this is to add a tooltip showing the name of the event plus the time when the event happened like Firebug is doing it.
Another solution is to show the two events within the Timings side panel of the page request (i.e. the request that triggered those two events).
A third option would be to display them as info within the bottom line besides the info about the requests similar to how Firebug is doing it.

The second one may not be that obvious. Though all three solutions could be implemented independently from each other.
