Empathy doesn't, which is enough to stall this temporarily. I'd be OK with
removing this unnecessary API surface area if it is in fact unnecessary, but
the way to prove it's unnecessary is to test a whole-system where it isn't
used, and that clearly hasn't been done yet.

I don't think this is a high priority compared with Bug #76855 and Bug #76369.

It does, with a comment saying "this doesn't seem ideal". If we want to rely on
this as an API design factor, we should document it.
