User timeline function

[Kumar Appaiah]

Dear Tweepy users,

I was wondering how the User.timeline function is intended to work;
currently, since it just uses the API object using which it is
created, the following code results in just my timeline always
(twitter is the API instance):

any_user = twitter.get_user('any_random_user')
any_user_timeline = any_user.timeline()

Now, any_user_timeline is my own timeline; this seems to be a tad
misleading. Of course, twitter.user_timeline('any_user') works
correctly, as expected.

Please let me know if I am missing something.
