I guess no active use case from AMI is doing this. However this is necessary to properly simulate iCub's eyes and the iCub's Gaze controller (https://robotology.github.io/robotology-documentation/doc/html/icub_gaze_interface.html), that uses the so-called position-velocity mixed mode, see the VOCAB_CM_MIXED mode in https://github.com/robotology/icub-main/blob/4595c48eb71a0ce64d61ea309bea329fb0c8bff7/src/modules/iKinGazeCtrl/src/controller.cpp#L576 .
