Jorge, what do you think of another option for animated icons:
"Animate if the program is running"
This would be so cool!
And probably an additional setting:
"Disable regular running indicator" (for this dock icon), so you can choose if you only want the animation as running indicator or both.

Edit: it would also be cool if you could specify the program that needs to be running to trigger the animation. This would enable you to also have this feature for Sub-Dock and Grid Stack icons.

Edit 2: It would probably make sense to have the above option *only* for Sub-Dock and Grid Stack icons. Would be a rather strange option for regular applications, hehe. :oops:

Edit 3: (last one ^^) You could also set that any from the programs inside a Sub-Dock or Grid Stack will trigger the animation/running indicator. But the best option would be that you can select which of the contained programs will trigger it.
Because if you have a Grid Stack with all audio related stuff inside for example, and you would like to animate it if any of the music players inside is running, but *not* if your sound card settings utility is running. (because it's running in background all the time)

Oh, and could you please add animated icon support to the recycle bin?
