.gif "play mode" when adding to a Comment

We are working on building out training content in a story mode and would like to have short snippets playing in a loop for people to see embedded in the workflow. Currently you can add a .gif to a comment background and it will provide a still image on the worklfow itself but functions as a gif in the configuration display. The interesting part is when you are running the workflow the .gif works and then it pauses it when the workflow has completed!

Thank you @Atabarezz ,

 

Hopefully, we can work on some more votes to help improve documentation practices.

I'm surprised this isn't a thing already!
Hopefully, this can be implemented, I can foresee a lot of use.
