Is it possible to create marker with animated icon?

I'm using Google Maps SDK for iOS and I would like to display a marker on my map. I've found out that the class GMSMarker is involved but it only accepts UIImage icon.

I would like the icon to be UIView or CALayer such that its contents could be animated. Is this possible?

I know that if needed, both of the aforementioned UI objects can be rendered into UIImage. However, that's utterly unefficient and ugly code. I would be really happy if there was other way.

Thanks in advance, Pete.

No, the marker (or overlay) can only display UIImage objects, although they do support animated UIImages (see the AnimatedCurrentLocationViewController in the demo project).
