So now that the layout for most applications is designed for a wide screen interface they're going to recoil back into a completely square screen???

I have a similar setup to yours but I'd probably want it for #1, to expand the portrait mode space, so e.g. two browser windows or two Word/PDF etc. documents could be viewed side-by-side.
I don't like the additional vertical space because it forces me to scan upwards also.

Yes, that's the downside, but there is an upside too. More visibility and less scrolling of web pages, documents, lists etc.

Several of my favourite software are modular, where you can either rearrange panes manually (e.g. PDF-Xchange Editor or ConnectedText) or portrait/landscape mode can be toggled (e.g. Dopus). Maybe the square layout would encourage developers more to make their software to suit both portrait, landscape, and square views.

it's really true -- moving the head/eyes vertically is *MUCH* more uncomfortable than horizontal movement.
