Comment:

 Hi @programmin,

 We generally respect user added content as long as it's not insecure. So
 if a user adds HTML for an image in the editor that includes a `srcset`,
 we chose to leave it alone and make sure the internal `srcset` functions
 don't overwrite what the user added.

 However, that doesn't address your concern, which is that replacing the
 image in the editor should also update (or remove) any previous `srcset`
 and `sizes` attributes. Is that correct?
