Um, I'm really not sure what's meant by "official" here, but I think any move to featuring support only for certain "official" rates would be a big mistake. There's lots of places besides red book CDs where 44.1 is commonly employed (look in the audio archive of just about any radio broadcast facility). The kernel/audio drivers should support any range of sample rate usable by the underlying hardware (applications of course are free to do as they please). Shoot, even 8 kHz/8 bit formats are still used for certain applications (telco integration, for example).
