Lists of words and lists of real numbers are good examples. The only thing you'd be using that table for is "I need a list of all the values that exist.". You're probably going to build a big list, then spit them back out again sorted into order. No need for a rowid because the primary key isn't an integer field. For the sort of data in your example, you would want a conventional table with rowids, as you write.
