AFAIK, you'll have to accomplish this by yourself. There isn't any
standard widget which is able to do this by itself. Maybe someone else
has already made such a widget. If not, feel free to write one yourself.
It shouldn't be that hard (i think):
  - Load all the frames in the gif
  - Show the frames in a loop (using a timer)
