IE11 will be some time further.
Generally our baseline web standards support for Microsoft is what Microsoft has considered EOL.
However, that doesn't mean we can't mark webp safe within Composr and make it a choice of the user.
99% of the work was already done for this in v11. I just did the final thing of marking the format web-safe.
It wasn't actually on my radar that Firefox had implemented webp!
As for Composr, I don't really want us adopting webp for bundled images. It only is a very marginal improvement over jpeg for lossless and png for lossy, yet jpeg and png are very widely supported in graphics apps. I'd like to see one of the competing new lossy formats succeed and leapfrog webp. Google are pushing webp as they do like to push things they develop internally even if they are of marginal utility.
