Now, each element in the core has an animation loop on demand. This is great when only one element is animated, but it is slow when multiple elements are animated for several reasons, including

* several intervals slow down the browser,
* the renderer is notified many times,
* some code could be reused for all elements,
* and so on.

Instead, the core should have an interval always running. It can update all elements that need be, and notify the renderer only once.
