While -16.9 might keep you safe, a better option might be -20 dBFS. Gives some headroom in case you need it. Also, many consumer playback devices may not handle full scale output.
Interesting, I am not a producer of anything as such, but do see that a lot of digital music and some films push 0dBfs (though at least the films aren't anywhere near RMS) Do you mean that consumer DACs can't handle it properly, or that the analogue side doesn't being driven full voltage?
