No, it's definitely not useless.

You can geotag using GPS traces and with the geotagged position you can 
find the name of the city/region/country/area where the photo was taken 
(Reverse Geocoding). This can be written into metadata and searched for. 
(see for example http://geotag.sourceforge.net/?q=node/19)

There is even another use case: Upload a KML/KMZ kind of trace with 
embedded/linked photos for sharing. This would mean using a web based 
map for display instead of a local map widget.
