There is a GifAnim datatype, but I found it very unstable under OS3.5 and it
conflicted with AnimatedIcon which also plays animated gifs on the
workbench. I chose AnimatedIcon as the datatype didn't look that great when
playing gifs in multiview anyways. Proper full animated gif support via
datatypes for use in Multiview and other datatypes viewers would be nice
though.
