I thought they could be useful if you are going to prepare your packages for a specific OS. Of cause everybody can check them out from the logs, but if you are in the process of setting up packages for new OSs the list might come handy. I personally really would like to know what OS strings there are "in the wild".
When building regular expressions it is always nice to know what strings they might match. Sure, you can parse your logs on your own, but isn't it nicer if there is some community driven list already available?
