Sitemap in robots.txt

Google and Yahoo allow a Sitemap: <sitemap_location> line in the robots.txt.

Do any of the other search engines use that feature?
Does it this feature help?

Re: Sitemap in robots.txt

I am going thru a very bad experience with google sitemap and updated robots.txt
Since last year my site's listing has almost vanished from google and alexa rank of 60000 has come down to 300000

If you place your sitemap between
<sitemap_location> </sitemap_location> command is perfect for the all search engines.

I agree with hotelaudit. That would work for all SE's.
