I put a summary up since it's hard to follow everything here:
http://wiki.allegro.cc/index.php?title=Convert_Bitmap_Propsoal
In short, I see this as a completely opt-in feature meant to make it
easy to convert all bitmaps, both public and private (hidden away in a
font structure). And no, it's not a necessity, but I think it makes
sense given we already convert bitmaps in the other direction.
