Comment (by tar.gz):
Some more info on my hands-on experience with the CampSite theme: our main
(only?) use for the featured image, apart from the sponsors pages, is to
provide an image for sharing pages on social media (call for speakers,
call for volunteers, etc). Indeed, the Open Graph functionality, added by
Jetpack, uses the featured image.
So we have added featured images that are specially tailored towards
social media, have the WordCamp logo and date embedded, etc. It's not
really a problem that they don't appear in the layout, as they are
selected with regards to social media much more than for the website look-
and-feel.
The website having a big visual header that is consistent on every page, a
featured image would maybe add too much visual noise.
On the other hand, considering that every WordCamp team may have a
different view on displaying featured images, it's pretty easy to hide
them with custom CSS, but it's not possible to display if the theme
doesn't make them available.
