No, we don't plan to support WAV. We support MP3, Ogg, and AAC. The feature
as designed is really for playback of audio, I don't think synthesis was
really comprehended. There are a few people interested in synthesis, but
AFAIK no visible progress has been made.
We don't really want to support WAV, because people putting up giant wav
files will lead to a bad user experience (bandwidth, primarily).
