And yet, we still allow for saving to jpegs. Also, matplotlib is also able
to do imshow(), pcolor() and other rasterized drawings, so we aren't
restricted to just line drawings.
Nils, the answer is "no, we don't support webp -- yet". There is no reason
why we can't eventually do so, and patches will always be welcomed. I just
wouldn't expect it anytime soon.
