Problem/Motivation
I'm using the basic CKeditor file widget to insert animage. I have configured my responsive image breakpoint group to be used for responsive images. The data-responsive-image-style class is added, with my breakpoint group properly identified, but the available breakpoint sources are not generated, and the image in the node display seems to be the original.
Steps to reproduce
Generate breakpoint group with image styles for responsive images. CKEditor Full HTML ensure the image widget is in the toolbar (NOT the one which says "use IMCE file manager") and responsive images filter is enabled. Identify the breakpoint group in the responsive image settings. Save. Add an image to a text/body field.
Inspecting the HTML shows this:
<img alt="myalttext" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" data-responsive-image-style="joepictmap" src="https://mysite/sites/default/files/pictures/L1005247.jpg">
Notice that the HTML does not use the PICTURE element (is it supposed to?) as it did in D7 and as it "still" does for a basic D8 image field. The responsive images style group is properly shown. However, none of the responsive image sources appear for the various breakpoints.
I would expect the HTML to show the srcset. Note this example from an equivalent D7 body field:
<picture data-picture-mapping="joepictmap" height="1563" width="3000" class="img-responsive">
<!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]-->

And note this example from a simple image field (d8 example), again, with the HTML generating the various breakpoint image style sources:

So, to summarize, inline images, while they are picking up the responsive breakpoint group name, are not generating the breakpoint image style sources, and therefore the node display is using the original image, defeating the whole purpose for using responsive images.
Proposed resolution
Ensure full support for image breakpoint groups so that adding an inline responsive image generates and then sources the individual images styles for each of the breakpoints.
Remaining tasks
User interface changes
API changes
Data model changes
