Sometimes people maintain static configuration items and the like in lists. I've certainly found myself wishing for the trailing ',' to be allowed on some occasions, though it's not a big enough deal for me to argue for it strongly if there is significant opposition. I think record syntax is the other significant place where it'd be useful (more so than tuples, given that adding an item to a tuple generally involves a type change that has an impact in many other places, whereas adding a record item is often just a question of adding it to the type and to a few other locations.)
