Consistency between different formats is not always a good metric here, as there are all sort of historical reasons which make the used set of formats out of all possible quite asymmetric.
PIPE_FORMAT_X8B8G8R8_UNORM is being used by mesa. PIPE_FORMAT_R8G8B8X8_UNORM doesn't exist hence it appears to be unnecessary. So it doesn't make sense to rename. But I think you stumbled on something: PIPE_FORMAT_R8G8B8X8_SNORM might not be needed. It's not used anywhere, nor can I find mention of such format in D3D9/10. I'll remove it if nobody opposes.
