Summary:

tintColor should be animatable. The ability to briefly flash a button to a different color would enable some useful UI behaviors, such as hinting that the result of an action has had its effect in a view reached by touching the button.

Steps to Reproduce:

[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5 animations:^{aButtonBarItem.tintColor = [UIColor redColor];}];

Expected Results:

The button bar item gradually turns red.

Actual Results:

The button bar item is immediately red.
