The honest answer to your question is that I don’t know (though I’d also be
interested to hear the answer). Obviously, I’d like to see generic APIs given
more thought, but they are currently somewhat slow due to how dispatch is
performed. I don’t think that’s a reason to design APIs in a certain

Hi, I'm trying to figure out the best way to display an animated gif inside a
canvas. I had attempted this before, but the only way I could figure out how to
display the animation was by picking apart the gif, frame by frame, and then
