Our use is case pretty much similar to Jack's and thus trivial. I do
have a PointCloud msg being published over a topic in one terminal (I
use pcd_to_msg script at the moment for this) and then I have
different processing routines running in gdb in another terminal. It
would be thus just convenient to have PointCloud msgs being played
from a bag file constantly. However I guess that the option with
--clock is perfectly fine for me. Shall we add this to the rosbag
wiki?

I am nowhere near our robot right now, I'll test this on Monday and
let you know about.
thx and cheers, D.
