F8 Nodoka Engine Animation Disabled by Default

Hi all,

On F7 I had installed the Nodoka engine from source with animation
enabled. I liked it enough to create a theme for it, given the dearth
of themes available at the time. I posted it on gnome-look for those
that might be interested:

I was curious as to why, on F8, the default RPM is created with
animation disabled?  I confirmed this looking at the spec file for it
here:

  http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/gtk-nodoka-engine/F-8/gtk-nodoka-engine.spec?view=markup

There is a note by Martin in version 0.5-2 on July 27, noting that the
--enable-animation configure option was removed.

Were problems identified or was this an aesthetic decision?

I'd like to put forth a motion to restore the animation option, if the
latter.

Thanks,

Marc Schwartz
