There is also a nifty command line tool for doing all kinds of things with
animated gifs called 'gifsicle' (in the repos):

 $ gifsicle --info ../new.gif
* ../new.gif 2 images
  logical screen 275x206
  global color table [256]
  background 170
  loop forever
  + image #0 275x206
    comment Created with GIMP
    delay 2.00s
  + image #1 275x206
    comment Created with GIMP
    delay 2.00s

A little scripting could make that useful as well.
