Yes, there are many examples where this can be useful. Think of any pole
with more than one thing attached to it (e.g. several traffic signs,
several antennas, a pole with a traffic sign and a trailblaze sticker, a
guidepost where you want to map individual signs, etc.). Also a tree with
something on it.
Also anything with small extension (e.g. a telephone booth), where you'd
want to add information about something in it or on it.

I prefer the generic solution (node relation) over a specific device
solution, which still doesn't allow for more details (different properties,
layering order, etc.)

Cheers,
Martin
