In FF90 Firefox now respects EXIF information about the intrinsic size of an image (see #6240). Essentially this replaces the HTTP Content-DPR header, which allowed a server to specify the intrinsic size of an image. This is useful because (among other reasons) it means a server can send a low quality placeholder image if needed and it will render with exactly the same layout as the original - so nothing gets stuff up when you lazily load the proper one.
This is bare minimal (I hope) docs to capture the fact of this change, without providing much of the detail. I'm hoping perhaps we can get this in for the release and then iterate following discussion. What it does is:
More generally what do we need?
