Comment (by markoheijnen):

 So I looked over the code and my note would be to move the `strip_meta()
 call` from `thumbnail_image()`. For example currently it doesn't work if
 you only flip an image. Also as mentioned in #28634 I would make
 `strip_meta` public. I would suggest a property in `WP_Image_Editor` that
 could be set with `set_strip_meta()`. Even for GD it could be set to false
 and we could do something like [https://github.com/markoheijnen/Improved-
 GD-Image-Editor/blob/master/editor.php Custom GD Editor]

 > Hello guys, have to confess it is not 100% clear for me whether you are
 planning to implement a slider or some UX component to let the users
 change the default 80%. In some cases image quality is simply vital even
 if it consumes more bandwith.

 That is not the plan since there are already plugins out there doing this.
 The percentage who want to change the quality isn't that high for
 WordPress to integrate it in core.
