Comment(by scribu):

 Aren't template tags all about ease of use?

 Which is better:

 {{{
 function alter_taxonomy_format() {
   return '%s -- %l';
 }

 add_filter('taxonomy_format', 'alter_taxonomy_format');
 the_taxonomies();
 remove_filter('taxonomy_format', 'alter_taxonomy_format');
 }}}

 or:

 {{{
 the_taxonomies(array('template' => '%s -- %l'));
 }}}

 I really don't see why a filter was chosen in the first place.
