Comment:

 Regardless of any work on client-side conversion in GB, adding such
 support on the server makes total sense. We should really do both. Just
 beware that server support will be quite limited (probably even more than
 AVIF support for example).

 While I try to push forward the client-side work, I'd be happy to support
 any server-side efforts.

 [https://wordpress.org/plugins/webp-uploads/ Performance Lab's Modern
 Image Formats] plugin should be a great starting point for this, as it
 already does server-side format conversion during upload. The only
 difference is that it also keeps the original file, but I'm not sure we'd
 want/need that for HEIC.
