To be honest I'm not really convinced we need the looping feature at
all.
It seems like we should drop this from the current version. What
benefit
does it bring? Is looping really that common? If we got rid of it we
could
find better ways of picking the start time.
One benefit of getting authors to use a declarative attribute instead
of a script is that a declarative attribute is easier to greasemonkey
away if the user seriously doesn't like looping.
