For HDTV sources, souped-up DVD etc., I think you are right, the wider bandwidth video switching will be worth having. It'll be more important the bigger/better the screen.Also worth having is the ability to convert S-Video and composite video to Component video format. If the receiver has this ability, you can route all video to your display/TV with the one component cable. If the receiver can't do this up-conversion, then you'd have to run a component cable and an S-Video cable from the receivers video out to the TV.
The first affordable receiver that had the high bandwidth component video swithching and the ability to convert S-Video/composite to Component was the Denon 3803 (see below, within the last few weeks someone said where its sold for $700,...it's a thread I participated in so look for *monk*). The Denon came out at least a year ago and there are probably other equally good receivers available now (?) with these options. Also, the Denon has been replaced with a just announced 3805 (adds self-calibration and room EQ, I think).
