Supporting TKIND_RECORD User Defined Types in a scripting engine

I'm considering adding support for TKIND_RECORD User Defined Types to our
product's COM scripting interface. I think I know how to make it all work,
but I'm not sure whether it's even worth doing. A quick scan of my XP
registry shows that out of the hundreds of registered classes, only these
few have TypeLibs that include TKIND_RECORD TypeInfos:

ADOConnectObject.ADOConnectObject
AutoDiscovery.Mail
BDATuner.ATSCChannelTuneRequest
BDATuner.ChannelTuneRequest
BDATuner.DVBTuneRequest
BDATuner.MPEG2Component
BDATuner.MPEG2TuneRequest
DSRefObject.Wrapper
DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader
DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage
DXImageTransform.Microsoft.CrBlinds
DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Fade
DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Iris
DXImageTransform.Microsoft.RadialWipe
DataToolProxy.DataToolProxy
DataToolProxyMgr.DataToolProxyMgr
H323MSP.H323MSP
IPConfMSP.IPConfMSP
MSDTHostCtrl.MSDTHostCtrl
MSVidCtl.MSVidWebDVD
MSVidCtl.MSVidXDS
Microsoft.Update.UpdateColl
Msxml2.SAXXMLReader
SAPI.SpLexicon
SAPI.SpTextSelectionInformation
Scardssp.SCard
Scardssp.SCardDatabase
Scardssp.SCardLocate

These all seem irrelevant to my customer set who are mainly people who want
to control Excel and other Office tools from our product.

Are TKIND_RECORD User Defined Types used so little that it's not worth
adding support for them to a scripting engine? Or, can anyone point me to a
common (and fairly high level) object class which uses TKIND_RECORD UDTs?

Thanks a lot.
