While I agree that there are valid reasons to design using IE-specific functionality, I've never heard of companies having agreements with Microsoft to use IE. IE is, after all, free. I would disagree with your statement that intranet systems are always designed with only one browser in mind, too, since I've worked on plenty that require compatibility with more than one browser.
