I wonder if you all are thinking of adding support for images that have real HDR data in them. These are usually in avif or dxl format and can be used to display images that have brightness info above the normal max brightness in jpeg/tiff/etc files. Camera raw and photoshop added support for this recently and the images are absolutely amazing if you have a display that supports it.

See this video for what it enables: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FW7hee5j49w&t=1s Make sure to watch on a HDR capable screen.
Also this website has examples of what it can do: https://gregbenzphotography.com/hdr/ This website only works in Chrome currently and will only show the effect on a HDR capable screen.

    I’ve been begging for this for a few years now. I’m surprised it’s not in there considering that HDR and AVIF are cutting edge and high-end. It’s the sort of thing I would expect to be supported on a paid photo site.
