Even 12-bits with a transfer function is nowhere near enough for our needs. Importantly, we need at least 5-bit exponents.

But is PNG really the right choice of format for real-time stuff? Real-time stuff tends to require HW acceleration and PNG is not exactly easy to accelerate with HW.

I don't disagree with the use-case, but I don't necessarily think all formats have to support all use-cases.
