AnimatedImage cannot resume animation if a single frame image is used

For example, using a Timer to set images from a list:

...
property int myvar: -1
property var mylist: ["loading.gif","bg1.jpg", "loader.gif"]
Timer { running: myvar < mylist.length-1; repeat: true; interval: 2000; onTriggered: { ++myvar; } }
AnimatedImage { source: mylist[myvar]; ... }

The AnimatedImage will animate the first .gif, show the second still image,
then display the third as a still image.

In this case, the best course of action would be to indicate this behaviour in the documentation, as it can be easily worked around with

onStatusChanged: playing = (status == AnimatedImage.Ready);
