"In the meantime, there isn't much software available at sample rates past 96/24."
This is a chicken and egg problem. With more equipment and more people using computer audio there will be more software. Very little extra work is required when mastering at one PCM rate to create versions for other sampling rates.
Don't wait too long to bring out 192 kHz capability or you will find that the world has moved on and the leading edge consumers are looking for 352.8 and 384 KHz. These data rates are well within the bounds of current computer technology and are presently in use at the best mastering facilities.
