> I think there are concerns about resource hits and page load times with
anything but an animated gif. Maybe @joen can chime in on this.
Since dashicons would be loaded anyway, it should be less resource-
intensive in terms of loading it. The animation itself would be more
resource-intensive for the browser, depending on the browser, depending on
how good its css animations rendering engine is. Either way, I'm thinking
we wouldn't do that by default, but rather introduce it so that it can be
used as an alternative for situations where a different color or size is
needed. And that wouldn't be a 4.0 thing, either way.
Once the new icons get in, let's summarize all requests on this ticket and
move them to a new one for 4.1, hopefully with some clearer guidelines for
suggestions and potential contributions, and clearly stated deadlines.
