Yeah it's the best approach given the current state, and that seems to be what they're going for in the MR.
However you're still in a bit of a mess due to lack of an explicitly documented implicit color space. And it's still a bit of a footgun for developers who don't know they need to care about this.
It's a bit like XML files without the encoding attribute. Except for text you can try to analyze the bytes and find a likely encoding, no such thing for pixel data.
