really? received from blue ray, or other external sources??? why should that be implemented? to be played by TV ultra performance 8.1 audio speakers?
this years samsung 60 screen

1920 X 1080HDMI IN

DVBT/Smart of course OUT is multichannel (signals created by TV itself)- I told it. But IN makes no sense.

it pass the DD sound out over optical SPDIF to multichannel AVR
100% sure as I just did an installation the other day where the TV (LG Plasma about 1month old, don't remember model) have an issue with ONKYO AVR so it wasn't possible to do it over HDMI. So the only way to get at least DD 5.1 was to go PC>HDMI>TV than sound from TV>SPDIF>ONKYO.
Unfortunately DTS doesn't work this way but the person can live without
and also if the movie plays DTS the XBMC(this is on PC not RPi!!!) send the sound as DD so still multichannel

you have it, so I believe you, but I miss the point. (beside to help you with specific setup
) )TV has no more than 2 repros, tv has no coverage of room to produce 5.1, 7.1 + signal even if you plase 20 repros inside it.
if you have home teatro system, you have AVR. to put even the smallest signal convertor from HDMI to TOS is waste. not ?
