That brings out another question then,why does OpenSuSe include 1280x800 versions config&image) of it's bootsplash?

Those could be there for future use when wide format virtual framebuffer mode is programmed into the kernel. As of now you can boot in any resolution as long as it is the standard 4:3. Then once the X server kicks in, you can have any shape the video card supports.
Bootsplash is deprecated. Only opensuse continues to use it. Other distros use splashy, plymouth, gensplash, etc.
