Is it possible to add the date navigator to a columnrange chart using Highcharts?

Question

I have a columnRange chart with 4 categories that I would like to be able to add the navigator scrollbar at the bottom, or if not possible, create the same chart using the Highstocks library.

This is my code: http://jsfiddle.net/gportela/9rjby/

$(function () {
    $('#container').highcharts({
        chart: {
            type: 'columnrange',
            inverted: true
        },

        title: {
            text: 'Machine Status: Producing'
        },
        subtitle: {
            text: 'Between Dates x and y'
        },
        xAxis: {
            categories: ['Producing', 'Idle', 'Below Rate', 'Changeover']
        },
        yAxis: {
            type: 'datetime',
            dateTimeLabelFormats: { // don't display the dummy year
                month: '%e. %b',
                year: '%b'
            },
            title: {
                text: 'Date'
            }
        },
        legend: {
            enabled: false
        },
        tooltip: {
            formatter: function() {
                return '<b>'+ this.series.name +'</b><br/>'+
                    'Hours: ' + Highcharts.dateFormat('%e. %b (%H:%M', this.point.low) +' - '+ Highcharts.dateFormat('%H:%M', this.point.high) + ')';
            }
        },
        series: [{
            name: 'Hours',
            data: [
                {x:0,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,7),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,8),color: "lightgreen"},
                {x:0,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,10),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,13),color: "lightgreen"},
                {x:0,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,17),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,18),color: "lightgreen"},
                {x:0,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,19),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,20),color: "lightgreen"},
                {x:0,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,22),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,23),color: "lightgreen"},
                {x:1,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,15),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,16),color: "orangered"},
                {x:1,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,8),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,9),color: "orangered"},
                {x:2,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,11),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,12),color: "GreenYellow"},
                {x:3,low:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,19),high:Date.UTC(2014,  2, 12,20),color: "DodgerBlue "}
            ]
        }]

    });

});

Anyone has any idea on how to achieve this?

Thanks,

Unfortunately scrollbar is available only in highstock on xAxis, but not in yAxis (as it is in inverted chart like yours)
