JPEG output is more likely than GIF output, and it won't happen either.
As it happens, these are both for the same reason: neither format supports
true, lossless color, and we don't want the support headaches from people
who output to low-quality JPEG or GIF and then come asking why their 37-day
render produced this banded, artifacted, crappy image.
