What would such a table/list achieve which is not already available, more
reliably since it is always up to date, with --list-extensions=FORMAT ?

I guess one could write a script which takes a list of formats as input,
calls --list-extensions=FORMAT for each of them and assembles a pipe table
from the results. Providing such a script would arguably be more useful
than providing a static table which becomes out of date.
