I went for it.

(setq convert-images-externally t)
(insert-image (create-image "/var/tmp/1sm.webp"))

now works for me.

It doesn't work in image-mode yet, because I was unsure at what point to
hook the auto-mode stuff together with this stuff.  It's slightly
chicken and egg -- convert-images-externally isn't consulted before we
try to display an image, and it will then compute what image suffixes it
can handle.

But if that hasn't been computed, then image-mode won't be triggered,
and so create-image won't be called.
