I think the new generic HID battery-detection code uses the
feature-reports. However, its disabled by default if I remember
correctly.

I will check this out, thanks for the hint.

Yes, battery power level is one place where feature reports are currently 
being used.

There are also several devices that need specific feature report to be 
sent to them in order to be able to use them at all (initialization). 
Magicmouse, to name another example, uses feature report to switch it 
between singletouch and multitouch modes. Etc.
