Thanks for working on this! This seems like a welcome addition, and the example code of the current status quo is definitely something we need to solve!

Filed TAG review: https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/901 Thanks for filing a TAG review. I think this can benefit from a holistic view of image formats and feature detection. E.g. do we have such feature detection for drawImage() <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRenderingContext2D/drawImage>? HTMLImageElement.decode() <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLImageElement/decode>? Are there other APIs that can benefit from a similar pattern? Are there reasons for these APIs to have separate feature detection methods? (i.e. do we expect support to diverge between them) I don't have any answers, but I appreciate you thinking through these questions with the TAG and coming up with some :) Mozilla: https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/889 Webkit: https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/259 Please let me know if I missed anything.

It's great that it was approved by the editing WG, but we also need wider TAG review for features, and WebKit and Gecko would like to see signals requests go through their official process.

I wasn't sure if we would need TAG to review it after it was approved by representatives from Webkit, Firefox and Chromium so I didn't file a TAG review request. I can certainly do it if it's required.

This not only affects developer ergonomics as now web authors have to attempt to write to the clipboard first in order to find out whether write failed due to a particular mime type not supported by the UAs (or sometimes add version checks that are unreliable at best), but also leads to unnecessary cost in terms of CPU cycles, COGS etc in order to produce an expensive web custom format which may not be supported by a particular browser.
