HI. There are a handful of features/functions that are undocumented. I also have a use for these two functions.
However, even knowing that they are there I will refrain from using them for the simple fact that if a feature is not in the official documents, then it is not officially supported. If it is not officially supported, then it is always subject to change/deletion without notice. The deletion (like other system-related tasks) can be accomplished with some elbow-grease by calling another service or writing a config file of some sort that will be picked up.
