GIF is limited to indexed colour. PNG is a fairly flexible format, and can do more than just indexed colour.

Firefox supports WebM since v4, so I would guess WebP too. I'm doubtful about IE and Safari.
Not like anyone's gonna change though. Not a huge improvement over JPEG, and significantly more difficult to decode (completely ignoring support/compatibility here).
