Setting AI Eye Gif; Because every AI wants a bouncy cat.

I noticed that apparently the admins can now set the sprite of the 'AI eye' (where the AI is looking with its cameras) to random things, like bouncing happy cats.
This is awesome for quite a lot of reasons, ranging from simply making your presence known to guiding clueless miners to their destination.
I would like an AI verb to set this, just like you can set the hologram/AI core display/AI status.
Posible sprites might be the various cats Jamie seems to know about, and of course an 'OFF' setting as the standard.

Well this isn't exactly 'new' by the way.
Other than that, I don't like the idea much.
Having a giant gif floating around ruins immersion for me personally.
Don't know about the rest of you.

Well sure, the 'Giant Bouncing Cat' gif is a little bit immersion breaking.
But it wouldnt be exactly hard to have a few, more subtle sprites for it.
I always explained it away with having little projectors in the cameras.
It didnt seem to bother people too much once they realized what it meant (as far as I could tell).

I like the idea of people calling for the AIs help getting some feedback for where the AI is looking.
