From a multiplatform perspective it makes sense and would unify sub rendering behaviors. Heck, a new ASS spec and tags not exclusive to hardsubbing may come out of it.
It'd be less of a gamble than transitioning to 10-bit during the rise of DXVA/VDPAU with no roadmap for GPU decoding.

there is no libass directshow filter and nobody wants to write one
transitioning to 10-bit is not a "gamble" as it does not break anything important (even if it did break something important it still would not be a "gamble" because we are not actually risking anything). also, it does not break old encodes, like switching subtitle renderers would do (because libass is not fully bug-for-bug compatible with vsfilter).
furthermore, you're sounding like the pointy-haired boss from Dilbert, and this is not a good thing
