Public bug reported: I have recently noticed that even after moving a gif into my Pictures folder, that when going "Settings > Background" and then going to the tab "Pictures", I am only able to see the images in that folder which are not gifs, so I have no way of setting the gif as either my background nor my locked screen image (which is what I would like it to be). Even when I go to that image and right-click on it and select "Set as wallpaper" I only get a still image version of it, no animation as there should be. So it would be really good if you could set gif images as your backround image and your locked screen image.
