If you can do 4:2:0, then 4:2:2 is easy. Just leave one
part of the functionality out (ie, the skipping of every
second line for U/V)

No, G200 could only do interleaved, G400 and later can do both.
(At least as i remember the specs, haven't read them in ages)
Anyways, for performance reasons (in video applications)
it's important that we can handle planar data in hardware.
