Comment #2 on issue 26064 by malakeen: Gif animation functionality with  
browser action icons
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=26064

Yes, I agree that one should use animations conservatively. The point is  
that there are
ways of animating the icon using the canvas element. If canvas  
transformations are to
be allowed then I think gifs should be too. Otherwise you'd just have to do  
a bunch of
ugly wait-and-change-frame-manually code to achieve the same result. And if  
an
extension has a poor usage of animations, it's really not our fault and it  
should be
changed on that end instead.
