I don't know a use case for using it in value, but Hixie stated (iirc) that
he had been privately shown uses for this.

There are definitely more. "for" in labels to associate with the repeated
templates, "form" in any input element in cases of nested templates, and so
on. Basically anything which makes a reference to something which could be
inside a repetition template.

I've glanced over all email op to this point, but not read deeply into most
things, so "not really". I'll be certain to pay attention to it when I next
read up more thoroughly though.
