Hi,
Stumbled upon this also when optimizing images with ImageAPI Optimize WebP ( https://www.drupal.org/project/imageapi_optimize_webp β ). The images are served as .webp when using core responsive image formatter, but when using Responsive Background Image format, the images are back in .jpg mode.
This feature would indeed be nice.

@anderz yes indeed, but someone has to work on it or sponsor development, otherwise nothing will happen. We'd all like to have that functionality :D
