 From a layout standpoint, that's probably the only visible effect. But 
subgraphs are useful for all sorts of
application-dependent tasks as well.

Not in theory if you use the C/C++ or gvpr interface, but indeed, the 
swig-bindings are a bit more constrained.
I don't see anything obvious that would prohibit adding the finer 
control of subgraphs to them as you already have
handles for nodes, edges and graphs.
