If certification provides a milestone for learning developers to work towards then we get good applicants to jobs as a side effect anyway.
I think the most useful aspect of any kind of certification is exactly as you put it: a milestone.
Once upon a time in a land far away I studied for a Java certification. It never really got me any jobs to my knowledge, but provided a useful goal for my self-study, and a mildly satisfying checkpoint at the end.
Also I absolutely agree that any certification must have the backing of the community.
