This would be useful to people who have two different kinds of ebook readers with different default ebook formats.

I am not sure that is needed - and if so it does not belong there! Calibre will already detect the device type - and thus the formats it can handle. Changing the default output profile can be done easily enough already via either re-running the Welcome wizard or Preferences->Conversion->Common Options->Page Setup. It is not something that is normally done very often for the vast majoirty of people as they do not normally get news for more than one device type.
If anything, there should be a request that is specific to News fetching to be able to specify multiple target types to be generated on a fetch. Perhaps also a more prominent display the current profile in the UI?
