John,
In answer to your question, no, and I don't suspect we will, b/c it doesn't really apply here. That was not the case in this event.
Generally speaking the only time we use that phraseology is when a hold short clearance is not required on the readback, i.e. when a group of you are inbound and holding short of rwy 9L/27R, and all we're doing is crossing you to taxiway L or M, as appropariate. There is no obligation or requirement on a simple crossing clearance, with no hold short provision, for you to do anything but acknowledge with your call sign. All were doing is trying to expedite you to the ramp (by omitting the unrequired long readbacks), while at the same time trying to minimize departure delsys. All those unrequired long readbacks take time. Time that really adds up! And time, in this game is a commodity.
