When converting Png to Webp, the 'comment' or exif data is lost.
I understand they use different ways of storing exif data but surely there's a way to just convert it to Webp's way of doing it, its just a bunch of comment data after all.

it's not exif metadata, but extra strings. These datas are not kept...

Ah, is there a chance you'd add support for converting these extra strings to be carried over to PNG or other? Or if there's another way.
