Anyway producing a 32bpp ImageData is not very useful if your canvas has less bpp since other than reading pixel values via JS you can't do anything with the ImageData other than draw it to a canvas... However, it would make sense to provide an API to convert an ImageBitmap to a Blob with a given type, asynchronously of course, without going through a canvas, since that can be lower overhead than going through a canvas. I think we should get that added to HTML and then use ImageBitmap here.
