Comment:

 The recent changes from #17234 prevent our dependency #7298 from being
 merged, and at the moment I'm far from sure how to rebase that code, see
 comment:48:ticket:7298. Once I get that rebased, there is one question
 regarding this ticket here as well:

 Should we reuse the PNG format description, or introduce a new one?

 On the one hand, APNG (as opposed to MNG) is very much about graceful
 degradation, so it makes sense to treat it as PNG in most places. On the
 other hand, perhaps the display manager can decide whether a client is
 actually capable of displaying APNG or not. If so, we might prefer
 supported APNG over GIF, but GIF over unsupported APNG interpreted as
 still PNG. If the display manager does not know about APNG support, but
 does know that PNG is supported, then the user should at least be able to
 choose APNG format manually, even though it might not be the auto-selected
 default in that case.
