General purpose search engines are just one of many potential consumers.

That discussion is fresh, let's see where it goes. It appears to me that you're
jumping to conclusions, just because the current information seems to support

Another way to jump to conclusions would be to throw out Microdata and include
RDFa -- after all, the "market leader" supports the latter but not the former,
right?
