Comment:

 The main issue here is that it would require an additional XML-RPC call to
 fetch which formats are supported. If you store this information in
 memory, you won't know when to refresh it, so you'll need to deal with
 that as well.

 I believe that concern was expressed by josephscott originally. The change
 came out of #15405, but that may have come from a conversation in IRC.

 I imagine we should at least add a parameter that allows you to only ask
 for what is specifically supported. I'm fine with that for 3.2, and it
 should allow app makers to then make these decisions on their own.
