This sounds good. In the interests of transparency, it might be good to get this (and AV1 even) added to our standards positions repo ( https://mozilla.github.io/standards-positions/). I don't know if this necessarily rises to "important" in the same way that AV1 does, but it would be good to have a clear signal from us that other browsers can use in their decision making.
