Toggle Timecode On/Off for particular playback

description:	Toggle whether the cue list on handle 1 of the current page is enabled for timecode.
remarks:	The original idea was to toggle a cuelist which is identified by its legend - but that's not possible. Greg writes 'I don't think there is a way to do this at the moment. I found a way of toggling a playback based on its location but it uses the current page, you could use the Playbacks window instead (which would be “PlaybackWindow”).'
