OK, it's certainly examples time. I think lurking beneath the lack of
strong consensus on a type name are different expectations about the
scope of this mechanism. I'll try to collect some examples but please
also can people share some brief examples in this thread?

BTW on the scope question (and in favour of the 'code' view of
things), it's worth pointing out the W3C Data Cube work, which uses
SKOS for various kinds of coded list in statistical data --- e.g.
gender, geo etc. See http://www.w3.org/TR/vocab-data-cube/#schemes
