Safety Zone

I've noticed on the EX1 (and I suppose other cameras) that there is a "safety zone" frame that is available.

Now this may seem a rather rudimentary question, but exactly is it there for? I could understand if you were using it near 95% or so to simulate what might be lost behind the bezel of a television, but with settings down to 80% on the EX1, why is it there?

I wish it would go to 67% so that I could have a 1280x720 guide frame, but this is not an option.

Thoughts?
