That's all wrong. The idea is to convert the images regardless of the ePub version. Most programs that handle ePub3, won't handle those formats. So allow conversion regardless of the ePub version. I don't want an ePub3 don't work because the image format(s) are not supported.
Just allow image conversion without converting the ePub in any other way.
And if you want the ePub to remain as ePub3 but be backwards compatible, these image formats, need to be converted in place and the OPF updated.
The thing is, these new (new to ePub) image formats should never have been sanctioned. The W3C are becoming really stupid (IMHO).
