It seems to me that as long as restore can detect what format the dump
file is in, it shouldn't matter what the default dump format is, right?
If someone makes a new dump in the new format, they'll presumably also
be restoring with the new code that supports that format as well.  I'm
having a hard time imagining a situation where moving to a new
fully-supported default dump format would break anything.
