Yeah, I know that lossless is huge, but was curious if there were any options since it will be a question that gets asked, and therefore I want to be prepared. My experiements suggest that even where there are codecs that have a lossless or near-lossless feature in the spec, they tend not to be implemented, especially in browsers. So I guess that’ll be a big “nope” for now… unless someone has further guidance.

There are lossless modes in some encoders (x264 has one that I'm aware of), but they tend to inflate inputs rather than compress them. There are systems used in video production that maintain all the source bits, but they use insane amounts of bandwidth.
