[QGIS-Developer] Planned support for JPEG XL?

Hi all,

According to GDAL's website, GDAL has support for JPEG XL compression since 3.6.0 but only when built against libjxl<https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl>. Considering that QGIS now uses GDAL 3.7, I was wondering if there was any plan to include it with the libjxl library in the future. Having tried the compression algorithm, it's performance is impressive and I can't wait stop using a proprietary ECW compression for our big mosaics!

Thanks!
