Previewing HEIC image files using Cloudinary Upload Widget?

I noticed that when using the Cloudinary upload widget you can read an HEIC file for uploading, but you can not preview it prior to server upload. Is this a known issue and expected behavior?

  Hello Nick,

  Thank you for reaching out. 

  Unfortunately, HEIC format is currently not supported by any browser so we are unable to allow previewing it and have to upload it straight away instead. 

  Also, currently, we do not convert it into a compatible format like JPG before uploading so you can request this to be added via https://cloudinary.com/roadmap

  Please let me know if you have any other questions or queries.
  
  Kind Regards,
  Thomas
