I wasn’t able to read the whole topic (this and Proposal — External tilesets using just .ase files), but about the file format for tilesets: we can easily use .aseprite format to store just tilesets, in the same way we use the .aseprite format to store only a palette (where a dummy a indexed canvas of 16 columns x required rows depending on the number of palette colors is automatically generated).
