When dumping pictures, stop animation after all has been dumped

As title says, when you run an animation with "dump pictures" checked, I
would like it if it stopped once all images are dumped.

I really can't see any use case where I would find it useful to continue the
animation after that. Maybe someone has one, but I don't.

Concur.  "Dump pictures" might also reasonably be a button, perhaps with
a dialog box that asks how many, destination, et cetera, since really
it's not a mode like a checkbox implies but an action.
