That looks great! Firefox should have something like SingleFile built-in. Instead of just copying features from Chrome, they should lead the innovation and add useful features like this.

I'm happy that Apple hasn't adopted WebP. JPEG XL and AVIF are better formats. Even Google is considering creating WebP2. WebP is already an outdated format (no HDR support), which should just die.
