Button certainly was broken in it's first implementation in IE. I
prototyped something in Lynx (even though the marketing department had
no interest in supporting it) and used button, then found it didn't work
on IE because one couldn't tell which button was presssed.
However, button is generally broken for accessibility in that there is
no fallback mechanism.

The content of button elements needs to more than text for their to
have any benefit over input type=submit.

That differs from the original problem which was simply to not send the
value at all.
