Obviously, this is for an animation, which PNG and SVG alone cannot
provide. (If an animation happens to have rotational symmetry, you can
use CSS+JavaScript to rotate it, but that's needlessly complicated.) The
same is probably true for all the other filenames in the list that
contain "animated", "spinner", or "throbber". Unfortunately, GDK does
not have any animated bitmap format built-in, and it depends on libpng
which doesn't either.
