RE: Status of CSS image-set()

We (IE) have it on our radar, but it isn’t currently on our roadmap. You can go add it to uservoice.modern.ie<https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/257854-internet-explorer-platform> and that will help us make decisions as it is an additional data point that we can take into account during planning.

I couldn't find any mention of image-set in the issues or roadmaps of Firefox and IE. Should I be looking for it under some other name? Or is it something that isn't even on their radars?

Strongly in favor of getting some of the advanced `srcset` functionality specced for `img` into `image-set()`. Out-of-context +1 to sneaking in `type()`, too—I know you’ve brought that up a couple times before.
