Hello! Short story: I recently discovered that adding a new GIF image to a page resets the animations of existing GIF images on the page with the same src.
Expected behavior: Adding a new GIF image to the page should not reset the animation of existing images with same src.
Actual result: Adding a new GIF image to the page resets the animation of all existing GIF images on the page with same src.
