I personally need the opposite of this because rehosting WebP images on the web is a problem because of lack of support of WebP on third party services.

The more WebP, the better. Now if only this could act as a clue-by-four to smack website owners to hurry up and add more support for WebP. Then I'd find some way to give this 10 stars. :P
