Jan -- I like #1 the best, but it seems like the Batik project won't touch GIFs due to licensing restrictions. I think for now I'll just output PNGs and convert them into GIFs through ImageMagick, which does a good job. Maybe if I get some extra time (ha!), I'll write an extension to the exiting Image task to handle GIFs.
