I believe there has been an issue with Nikon files, but that was the exception, no? As far as I'm concerned, my PEF files are pretty much TIFF standard, and it is easy to write software that reads them (I did, hacking into some TIFF Python modules.)
It would be nice if the whole industry standarized with DNG or something, but i's not like manufacturers are trying to keep people from reading their camera's files. j ========= It would simplify software. And there wouldn't be software that didn't support one format or another. Actually, I guess that would be the main (only?) advantage. Marnie aka Doe
