What is the use of it if you can just losslessly re-encode back to one of these formats if a card or directshow filter supporting them ever does appear? Better to have something that plays right now than something that might play next year.

And since no video card supports multichannel pcm to the receiver right now anyway, it's all a moot point. When the chain is complete, you could translate anything back to TrueHD or Master Audio on the fly the same way we currently can for AC3, although it might use another percentage point or two of cpu.
