Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 > Okay, cool, thanks! I must have misunderstood when reading. Testing
 sounds good!

 Working on it!

 Looking more carefully at this bit: https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-develop/blob/679ccc35e63e62a90c768afcc16f46bd154dfb65/src/wp-
 includes/class-wp-image-editor.php#L319-L320 - the way the code works, it
 checks if the editor (could be gd or imagick) has support for the mime
 type **after** the new mapping happens. If the type is not available, it
 switches to the editor's default type. I can see an improvement though: we
 shouldn't do the remapping at all if the new type will not be supported.
