Are there others in the team?

Without getting into the argument of whether they are useful, you are the first person that I know who uses them. :) I have been programming in C since 1988 and in C++ since 1997. I have read a lot of books (mostly on C++), frequented the C++ newsgroups for years and years, and did work at many C and C++ companies. I have never seen those keywords used.

I don't have a preference on the topic but it would still be incomplete, right? There are many other operators that don't have keywords. Perhaps that's why not many people use them.
