What about this case?

I think it'd be better if the -T/--timestamp option gives the default
TIME sample_type value but it can be overridden by per-event setting.
I mean:
(per-event 'time' setting is meaningless here)
$ perf record -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles/,cpu/instructions,time/' kill
$ perf evlist -v
cpu/cpu-cycles/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
cpu/instructions,time/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
(adding -T option, same as the default)
$ perf record -T -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles/,cpu/instructions,time/' kill
$ perf evlist -v
cpu/cpu-cycles/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
cpu/instructions,time/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
$ perf record -T -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles/,cpu/instructions,time=0/' kill
$ perf evlist -v
cpu/cpu-cycles/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
cpu/instructions,time/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
(adding --no-timestamp option)
$ perf record --no-timestamp -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles/,cpu/instructions/' kill
$ perf evlist -v
cpu/cpu-cycles/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
cpu/instructions,time/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
$ perf record --no-timestamp -e 'cpu/cpu-cycles/,cpu/instructions,time=1/' kill
$ perf evlist -v
cpu/cpu-cycles/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
cpu/instructions,time/: ..., sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD|IDENTIFIER, ...
