Oke last one! Why can’t i set a moving background in HA? I’d like to have a snowy background for christmas. I tried a GIF, but it just stands still. h264 maybe?
And besides that I added also tried to add picture-entity to my dashbord with a gif, but it also so doesn’t move. 
No more votes?
Probably super low on the priority list but it would be very cool. Obviously it can creat visually busy effects but a gentle snow or some glimmering on a summer theme with ocean will look super cool. And since it’s backed by html/jas, technically it should be doable… easily?

@Ildar_Gabdullin in your 2nd post is the background animated? Adding individual animated cards is fine but how about a background?
For me specifically I’d be curious if the background is part of the theme definition itself and points to a format that supports animation, would it work?
E.g.
Mushroom Winter 0:
lovelace-background: 'center / cover no-repeat url("/XYZ/winter-0.jpg") fixed'
modes:
light: {}
dark: {}
Imagine winter-0.jpg was an animated GIF. Would that work? I had tried it ages ago and it didn’t but maybe things have changed or I did something stupid at the time. It wasn’t a high priority for me so I gave up fast
Of course animated)))
Can say nothing about themes, not using background in themes.
