I too would be interested in this. Cyclic animations are always a nice way 
to extend the viewability of a short animation with just 100 frames (= 3-4 
seconds).

Also, it makes the timing of the frames more simple. For example, with +kc 
on, the frames would fall on clock values 0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 etc. 
With +kc off, they would fall on 0, 0.0101010101, 0.0202020202, 
0.0303030303, 0.0404040404 etc. It makes it more difficult, if you want some 
specific event to happen right in one frame and not between two frames.
