On the page webflow produced to promote background images, there is this:
* Dynamic and static inline images. Support for background images and images in rich text elements is coming soon.
Based on this I assume this feature is 'planned' but I'm adding here as a formal reminder/request!
Few more people requesting on the original announcement post too:

This is needed. Why is this not done already?
Five years later and we still don't have this!!! We've just invested weeks in building a version of our blog in Webflow and this has come up at the last minute. It's a mess.
We need this ASAP!
This is very important! Please bring it ASAP!
Really important for CMS and google page speed analytics. Please add ASAP
Desperately in need of this, please please please prioritize this!
Hi guys! It's kinda scary that this feature has been in the backlog for 3 years soon. Every site I make more or less, clients are creating articles in the CMS. And without fail, they upload huge stock images into the Rich Text field. This is kind of a deal breaker for all content heavy sites like blogs, unless you have a content wizard at hand who remembers to resize every single image before uploading. And even then, it's heavy to load on mobile.
Begging for some speedy update on this one!
Can we please merge this other request into this one? https://wishlist.webflow.com/ideas/WEBFLOW-I-1073
Should be 168 votes, not 101.
Eghad. This would allow a much faster mobile experience for us (as display:none doesn't do anything on mobile; to actually prevent images from downloading on mobile, you need to use CSS background images).
But then we kill desktop & tablet performance because background images aren't responsive.
Stuck between a rock & a hard place, Webflow.
When will this feature will be available? This is definitely required for a Business account with multiple editors.
Please develop this soon.
Need this! pls add!!!
I desperately need this for my client sites. Can someone from Webflow give is an ETA? Google is using performance ranking now and having 4mb background images uploaded by client who don’t know how to crop is not acceptable.
Webflow rocks but this is one major feature missing since we can’t crop images.
Has the feature become available? Just checking in case I missed it! :)
Since Google now places so much emphasis on page load this is an essential feature. Also it’s been promised for over two years.
this is important – because benchmarks show here a really important problem: background images are important for todays websites and these REALLY need the smart compression handling.
And to add to this: also responsive images for Lightbox images are very welcome!
Is this going to be in an update any time soon??
Any ETA on this feature?
