156826 - Add option to re-animate one-time animated GIF

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 69405

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, enhancement)

Description

[Kevin Chen]

As of build 2002071008, it is not possible to re-animate an animated GIF that is
not set to loop.  Reloading does not re-animate the image, and there is no
option to start the image from the beginning.

I suggest adding a right-click option that re-animates the GIF, or at least some
other method of seeing the animated image again.  Sometimes you come across a
really cool one (see URL) and you want to see it again.

Just realized shift-reloading does re-animate the image, but it would still be
helpful to have a right-click option.

-> gui stuff

View Image (bug 100909) and Reload should both restart an animation but do not.
 Several others have asked for a "restart animation" command on the context menu
for an image (bug 69405), but I think we already have too many items in the
image context menu.
