New Scripting Definition Suite in System Events

Has anybody noticed the new Scripting Definition Suite in the System Events terminology dictionary in Yosemite? Any thoughts on what it’s good for?

Here’s an example script:

tell application "System Events"
tell scripting definition
tell scripting suite "Processes Suite"
tell scripting class "UI element"
get name of every scripting property
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell

-- returns {"accessibility description", "class", "description", "enabled", "entire contents", "focused", "help", "maximum value", "minimum value", "name", "orientation", "position", "role", "role description", "selected", "size", "subrole", "title", "value”}
