Comment (by jorbin):

 I'm a bit torn on this. On the one hand, we aren't breaking the RSS spec
 to the best of our knowledge, on the other we are a bit ahead of the curve
 with `srcset` compared to the majority of the internet. Is saying that
 products like Mailchimp and Feedly need to update, the bug is on there
 end, any different than if we said the bug is in IE8 and Microsoft should
 update it to fix it? Shouldn't we work everywhere that is reasonable?

 Alternatively, does anyone have a contacts at Mailchimp/Feedly we could
 leverage to see if a fix could happen sooner rather than later?
