Anything obvious I am missing or total misdirection I am taking? Better ideas or tips to get this done easier? Does someone see where I'll stop and freeze without a way forward (because certain APIs will not allow me to proceed without major refactoring)? :) If #format a good idea for input format specification on forms, or should I use a better name? (I would not like to get in conflict with #formatter and friends).
Excuse my ignorance in this part of the Drupal code but ... How about adding "${fieldtype}_format" functions to the theme engine that look for hooked "${formname}_${fieldname}_format" and/or "${formname}_{$fieldtype}_format" else apply a default format for that field type?
Probably we don't see/understand each others thinking in its entirety. What we need is a Drupal core level knowledge of how fields and formats are tied together, so we can drop input formats when irrelevant, or attach WYSIWYG editors to then when needed. This will all be modifiable in the theme, but should not be a task of the theme or theme engine, since setting up these relations and limits on the admin interface will be global, certainly not theme dependent.
