Well, the first fansubs for the new season are out, and the majority of 720p are 10-bit. Guess I'm going to be doing a lot of transcoding until XBMC supports them.
As to the comment about enough choice ... I like to make my choices based on readability and quality of subtitles (grammar, spelling, etc).
I don't blame the XBMC developers in any way for the current mess, but given that this is a problem affecting users now and there is an upstream implementation in ffmpeg I think it would be a good idea to integrate it as soon as possible. If nothing else, it would allow shaking out of bugs early.
