I personally don't see much point in going to the trouble to make a sensor that has a larger area than the current one if you can't actually make use of the extra area, half the area of the sensor would be unused regardless of what format you decided on.
One advantage of a rumour is that one is unconstrained by pesky facts so I assume that the full image would be available for PP (at least in raw).
Personally I want one because
A. With many grabbed shots where there is only just time to raise a camera - let alone decide on format.
B. On camera flash just looks odd with a vertical camera position.
C. I have very sensitive skin so I never go outside without a broad brimmed hat - and for portrait shots I need to take the hat off! As I result I tend to mostly use landscape and rely on cropping later.
D. Some shots just need either a square or very exaggerated landscape format and for these these the format would be ideal
