I know that they are being used to interface with the public for educational purposes in galleries but I've not seen info on using them for collections management purposes. I know I have seen posts on the NAME list and on Museum-L on gallery use but off hand I can't remember anything anywhere else.
Typically changes in information technology are approached pretty conservatively in the collections arena. Since this falls within more of the pure registration end of the work, I would put the question out on the Registrars list. If it's being done that is the best way to find out - no doubt.
