I thought you wanted to avoid having to define V4L2_PIX_FMT_x for an
exploding number of proprietary formats that are quite similar but still
incompatible. It makes sense for formats that are used by more than one
driver.

Yes, it does. Each driver having multiple raw formats just needs a
private control id to select one.
