Comment(by ryanhellyer):

 +1 for theme developers being able to add extra formats when they deem
 fit.

 '''BIG +1''' for encouraging theme developers to use the standardised
 formats. Perhaps a way to encourage this, without forcing it on them would
 be to use add_theme_support() again to add support for customisable
 formats? add_theme_support( 'custom-post-formats' ) would be enough to
 make it obvious to developers that they probably don't need to create
 their own custom formats, yet still allow those who do require the extra
 flexibility to create their own custom formats for their particular
 implementation.

 Support for some sort of conditional system would be handy too. Perhaps
 something like the following:
 {{{
 if ( is_post_format( 'video' )
     echo 'this is the video format';
 }}}
